Guest Bathroom Renovation Progress - One Room Challenge Week 4

OTHER SOURCES:

Vanity Color: Dunn Edwards Black Spruce (DE6308)

Concrete Countertop: The Compound Concrete

My guest bathroom renovation progress is a little more exciting this week than last because the décor I ordered from Overstock is in! This week is all about the details because that’s how I roll.

Try as I may, I’m too impatient to save decorating for the end on my own projects.

Even if I have to move the décor in and out of the space 342 times during the renovation process, having it in there helps me keep my eye on the prize and feel like things are a little less disorganized and chaotic. Try it. ;)

Axel 5-Light Wall Sconce // Turkish Hand Towel // Matte Black Towel Ring // Small Glass Jar

Let’s talk about this funky fresh wall sconce I chose for the vanity. Since I decided to mix metals, I knew I wanted a vanity light that tied in the matte black and brass finishes. I found a few great options, but kept coming back to this one and honestly could not be more thrilled with how perfect it is in this space.

The housing for the bulbs is more on the brass side of the spectrum as opposed to gold, which worked for me because the mirror is brassier. If your finishes are more gold/champagne toned, then I’d opt for a fixture with those lighter tones.

Gray Striped Turkish Bath Towel // Black Floating Shelves // Gold Basket Set // Glass Jar // White Modern Clock

The last of the details include these black floating shelves. I chose to go with shelves instead of art over the toilet (yet to be installed) for function. This is a rather small bathroom without much storage or counter space so the shelves hold items that would otherwise clutter the sink. 

Every bathroom in our house has a clock in it so we can stay on track when getting ready, and I like to have extra t.p. rolls readily available but displayed in a cute way.

There’s nothing more uncomfortable than being a guest in someone’s house and running out of toilet paper then having to rummage through their cabinets praying you find more.

Plus, let’s be honest, it ensures my boys have it readily available to refill when it runs out – and they do!

We also don’t have a medicine cabinet in here for things like Q-tips and cotton balls, so I love this jar because it’s large enough to hold both and fits in flawlessly with the other décor.

See, function can still be stylish! You just have to get creative.
