The bathroom is finally done!
It was mixed emotions getting rid of the ducks but I have finally come to terms that my "baby" will be turning 4 today!
Enjoy the tour, a few more tweaks like shelving and a new throw rug but I couldn't keep you in suspense any longer.
You can read about my lantern project here
I repainted over the buttery cabinets that I had previously painted. The pulls I had already purchased at Anthropologie a few years ago.
I couldn't resist when I saw the #3. It's a great place to store their toothbrushes.

Kristin, your bathroom looks sensational! I love the new paint on the cabinet, it looks so fresh and pretty. I have to tell you, your kitchen makeover played a huge part in inspiring me to tackle my own kitchen, and now I've seen this I just might have to take on the ensuite! Thanks for sharing, and a very happy birthday to your little 'big' boy too. K xx
Wow ..how fresh and inviting....love the look..you are so clever...and cannot believe you did it so cheaply. Sensational. Happy birthday to your baby boy.. take care Kym X
Are these photos from the PB Kids Catalog?! Beautiful job ~ looks very crisp and fresh. I love the oar in the corner and I also love how the cabinets pop against the wide beadboard! Pat yourself on the back ~ job well done!
Amazing transformation!! Just amazing! Love the color. It looks so crisp and clean and calm!
You've done an amazing job on this bathroom. The colour is gorgeous, I love the beadboard and the finishing touches are perfect!
~ Sam
Looks great Kristin. You got beachy just right!

Kristin, your bathroom looks so beautiful- All the details are perfect! I love, love, love the color you painted the cabinets! In my next house I am definitely going to paint the cabinets because I have ALWAYS wanted them, especially in the bathrooms.
your bathroom is amazing.
good job!
xo
W.O.W.!!! I LOVE it!!!! Great work!
The bathroom looks fantastic! You did an amazing job. I am impressed.
Will you come do mine next?!
GORGEOUS! I LOVE the cabinet!!
OMGosh...the makeover is sooooo COOL...luv the "COASTAL STYLE"! Some favorites are the jars and that cute little #3 bucket!
Blessings,
Linda
Love the new Look. I especially love the candle holders, but I am not brave enough to put them out since we had a fire from a candle (you can read about it on my blog). I soo... wnat to put some bead board up in my bathroom, but right now we have too many other projects going on!
I love the beachy look of the room and the painted cabinets. I'm sure a tear or two was shed over the loss of the ducks, but the room looks wonderful. Happy birthday to your little one!
It looks great! I am loving the lanterns and the #3 bucket!
The bathroom looks wonderful. I would have had a hard time painting over the duckies too. I am sure you felt like you were erasing part of your babies childhood. You are acknowledging that he is growing up. Ugh. That is so hard. My baby just turned 4 too at the end of April. Just yesterday I heard him tell a kid at the park, "I'm not little, cause I'm 4 now." Too funny. I hope he has a wonderful day!
Hi Kristin!
What a beautiful transformation! I love everything about it. The colors are so soothing, it's a perfect place to retreat to after a long day.
Happy Birthday to your baby! He will ALWAYS be your baby! :-)
Anne
Great job! HA! I have those same tins in my home office to store craft supplies #'s 1-5! I just thought they were way too cute to pass up.
It looks fabulous Kristin! I love the colors and all of your little touches, very beachy. The paw prints are priceless, hope you're leaving them as is. :)

Kristin,
you definitely accomplished the beachy bathroom look...and it's not overdone. You have wonderful attention to detail and I love the redo on the cabinets.
Loving that little basket/box on the counter and the bucket with the number three. I love anything with verbage or numbers too. : )
Thanks for sharing and inspiring us.
I am off to find out the color you used on the walls.
It looks AMAZING! GREAT job!
Darling, you're my hero!!! I can't believe the total change in a small budget!! How that is possible???? You're new bathroom is great, I imagine how happy and proud you must be! Very classy, and it couldn't be different since it's YOUR bathroom.
Have a nice evening, friend! xx
I love it Kristin! Another fabulous job! It really looks good. I love the colors and the beachy look.
~ Tracy
Fabulous work! It's so airy and beautiful. Love the color!! What is it?
YOWZAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!(Richie Cunningham)
You must be so happy with it. You guys REALLY did such a wonderful job, it's amazing=0)
Have a great day,
xoxo,
Carol
It looks very beachy and oh so grown up! :) You did a wonderful job transforming it in such little time. I'm a sucker for pale blue walls and white beadboard.
Hope you have a wonderful day!
~Karla
congrats on a job well done!
Your bathroom turned so NICE!
I just love the beadboard!
Room looks so cool and calm...
I want to share a tip, but this might
not be the place to do it? I'll do it
anyway.. Please don't store toothbrushes
in the open.. think of the toilet flushing,
the spray/mist, go's a long way!

Wow, what a difference! It looks so "beachy"! (good thing huh) I really felt a breeze and smelled the salty air when I looked at the pictures. Great job!
That bathroom turned out amazing...I actually came by yesterday to see it, and got side tracked and left...so I am glad you stopped by to bring me back here to let you know how FABULOUS you are at decorating and transforming any space! Have a great day! Debbie

Hi, just started following your blog.. it truly is very inspiring! I had to give you a big high five on your beachy bathroom makeover! It's SOOO pretty! I love the sea blue with the white and all your assesories. I actually like the puppy prints with the paint.. it gives some whimsical character!

Wow, great transformation. Couldn't believe it when I scrolled down to the before pictures.
Well done!
Incredible, Kristin! Lovin' that beadboard! Could I just fly you out here for a couple of weeks so you could help me get my house done?? Actually, that would probably be too much fun and we wouldn't get any work done! ;o)
Your transformation is amazing...great job!
~mary~

Wonderful colors!

So nice! What a difference. It looks like a very peaceful place to be.
Hi Kirstin,
First off Happy Birthday to your baby...my youngest son just turned 4 last week too! : ( I love your new bathroom, so beachy and fresh. Darn Marshalls, that's just the size of paddle I've been looking for for my sons room! Love how your tea light holders turned out,and the mirror and the knobs and...well you get it..i love it all! bye bye duckies! Great job.
Cheers,
Stacey
What a lovely bathroom -- you definitely accomplished your goal of a beachy bath. I can almost hear the tide :)
Cute, cute bathroom! Your boys sure have a beautiful and talented mom. I'm loving the Valspar Gravity. I have a question....did you paint the inside of your cabinet? Twice?? I have a wood vanity, kind of like yours, but the idea of painting the interior, keeps me from tackling this project. I'll keep your little secret either way. ;~)
Hi Lori-
I couldn't gain access to your blog or email...sorry, hope you read this :) I did paint the interior doors and trim. Once you get going it's not too bad :) Good luck to you, I know you will be so happy you did it once your done!
Great job! Very beachy! I love it! :)
Thanks Kristin....I'm always checking your blog. OK...you've given me the courage to paint my vanity, that is.....after I finish stripping the wallpaper. Keep your great ideas coming. It's such a treat for me every morning to check in with you. ~Lori~
I love this bathroom! I'm looking for the perfect shade of blue/grey for my boys room- can you share your paint color? Thanks, I'm so glad I found your blog. We'd like to redo our bathroom similar to this with the beadboard in our new house.
Elisabeth
Love your bathroom redo. what a great job? What is your paint colors? the blue is so great.
love it! What's the name of the color you used on the walls? I love it.....
Thanks,
Teri
Hi Teri-
Thanks for stopping by, hope you get this! I used Valspur Gravity. Hope your having a great weekend!
Kristin
Your bathroom made me fall in love with blue and I am not a blue person. It is one of the prettiest transformations that I have seen.
That looks just beautiful! Did you use the same paint color on the walls and cabinets or are they different?
Wow! This is absolutely fabulous! I love that it was so cheap, too! Beautiful! I saw this originally on Remodelaholic. Feel free to stop by and link this project up on this week's Bargain Brag Wednesday: http://www.bargainshoppingparadise.com/2010/05/bargain-brag-wednesday-52661.html
Beautiful! Would you mind sharing the wall color? Is the cabinet the same color? Love the candle holders!
I love this bathroom and am going right now to buy that paint color for our bathroom in our new house! Thanks for sharing your wonderful bathroom with us!
OMG!! This is THE Bath!!! :-) wanderful done!!
I love the beachy feel of the bathroom. Perfect.
XO,
Valerie
wow this is amazing, I love it!
I'm new to your blog and am absolutely loving it. I am about to redo my bathroom and love the color you chose. Can you tell me what color you used?
The jars are just adorable here.
OH, MY GOODNESS! I LOVE it! Your bathroom is absolutely beautiful. I love your style. I am going to be adding you to my blogroll and will be coming back to check out more of your blog later. :)
Beth.
I think the rug has to go...try a jute rug instead. I'd break away the blue cabinetry from the blue rug and go well with the "beach" theme you are after!
Beautiful! I love everything about it. It looks so clean and fresh.Do you mind sharing the color of the cabinet? It is fabulous.
Annette
Ok, can I tell you how excited I am I stumbled by your blog! I am painting out kitchen cabinets tomorrow and am so nervous! Reading through your kitchen re-do post makes me a lot less nervous and most just excited! Plus I love your idea to paint the bathroom cabinets a color! I have been very conflicted, can't do white because the countertop is a light beige marble and black seems to dark in a smaller bathroom. Thanks! Your blog is GREAT!
Love your bathroom renovation! The blue you picked for the vanity is soft and cozy. I really, really like the lanterns. We don't have a lot of space in our downstairs bathroom (pedastal sink) so I've often wished we had room for candles when I take a bath. Hanging the lanterns on hooks is brilliant! I am headed to the tutorial now. Thanks for the inspiration.
What a huge transformation - I absolutely love what you've done! I'm so into beadboard... can't wait to put it in my bathroom.
:)
ButterYum
Kristin,
That looks so fabulously restful! (Until the doggie prints.) Yikes. I hope you were able to clean them up.
Hopefully some day we can gut our bathroom and make it beachy beautiful like yours! Until then I have to be happy with my little frugal makeover.

This is AMAZING!!! How did you get the gold trim off of the mirror?
Beautiful. I think I have to add some bead board in my daughters bathroom. It might just be the zap it needs.
