mon salle de bain! (my bathroom)


thanks to a super awesome IKEA run with ally this week, my bathroom is finally tolerable. unless you look in the shower...there's black mold, which i have no idea what to do about, & the bathroom is seriously the oldest room in the house. it's falling apart. i ought to talk to my landlord about it....anyway. here's how you make ghetto look less ghetto. or at least how i did it.
this is my little corner of the bathroom. i inherited the mirror from my friend ryan when he moved out of logan...it's a favorite of mine! i bought the stool from ikea for 4 bucks, so now i have a little nook to get ready at. ignore the kitty litter.
i like hanging things skiwompus. i don't know why...it's just a thing. but anyways, i bought the framed mirrors also at IKEA for 2 dollars each. before, i had a ghetto painting i got for 50 cents at the DI that would never hang straight. it was bad.
the no parking sign came with the house...awesome, i know. the dresser used to be an ugly cream color, but luke & i bought new knobs & spray painted the thing black. i also bought a bin to keep all our cleaning supplies in.
i made this for 3 dollars...saw the cut out at ben franklin crafts & decided it'd look awesome painted green. it hangs right next to our bathroom door, above the light switch.
i know that's not very classy, but come on. i couldn't resist. hanging it right above the toilet makes it clear...NO SPRINKLING WHILE YOU'RE TINKLING.
i bought 2 green rugs to (kind of) match the peace sign decor as well as the oddly colored shower curtain. we also installed the toilet paper holder as there was none when we moved in.
so...yeah. i guess it's sort of coming along! yay!
