Here's the official unveiling of the bathroom on the main floor. It's just a small half bath, but it originally sported lino, a large mirror glued to the wall, and a horrible light we affectionately nicknamed 'the baguette'*. We ripped all that out, but kept things that still were in good shape like the vanity and countertop, and the toilet and sink. The faucet, light fixture, knobs, towel bar, toilet roll holder, mirror and moulding were updated. With some crafty thinking, we didn't break the bank on this one (yay!).
The existing countertop isn't horrible, although some yellow gerbera daisies help.
Good budget tips: We found a mirror for $40 (Homesense) and sprayed the frame white; we used a very moderately-priced tile for the main squares and highlighted the edge with the more expensive glass tile (I think the total floor cost was $140).
More of a 'during' shot rather than a 'before', but hey, you get the idea.
*There's still a 'baguette' in the house, in another bathroom we didn't go too crazy on. More on that beauty later.
