Master Bathroom Makeover

One of the things that I like to do at the start of a new year is go on a tour of the house and look for things that are in need of repair or need to be replaced.     Other things I look for are....Is the decor outdated ......has it been the same way for several years.....or am I just tired of it!    
When I looked at the master bath,   I saw the walls were full of nail holes and could use a fresh coat of paint.   The walls  had never been textured,  so I think it would look great with some new paintable wallpaper like we hung in the guest bath last year.     The window needs something new......I think the blinds are original to the house.    I am also planning to replace the shower curtain.
     

    The mirrors were original to the house....probably about 30 years old,  so it was time to change those out!

I decided to use some mirrors that I already had.

  I bought the "new" mirrors in 2002 at Hobby Lobby on sale for $35 each.     I hung them in the master bath at the home we lived in at that time.   So,  14 years later they are back in my master bath  (only at a different house) !

Since the mirror frames are silver,   I decided to accessorize the vanity with some of my vintage silver pieces.    The soap dish is a repurposed silver butter dish. and  my vase is a silver champagne bucket.   Nothing like shopping the silver buffet for new items for the vanity.....lol!

I dug thru my stash of towels and found some with pretty green ferns .....Is anyone else tired of white snow and ready for some green plants?

I am already in a spring mood so added  a few touches of lavender too!

My new hand towel holders are  repurposed silver casserole dish holders    You know the ones I'm talking about.....you see them at lots of yards sales for a dollar because the glass dish has been broken.

To hang my silver casserole holders,   I tied wire between their two little feet.

I used silver napkin holders as hand towel holders......

Wire baskets that I "borrowed" from the laundry room hold extra bath towels.....

 I tucked some vintage silver hand mirrors  in the towels for some whimsy!

I swapped the aqua rugs for the white ones that were in the guest bath.     The guest bath is done in a nautical theme so I was able to use some of the decor that I took out of the master bath in the guest bath.

On the left you can see how the  mirrors looked in the formal living room before I moved them to the master bath.

On the right you can see the tea cup shelves that took their place.

Now that the new wall accessories are in place,  the holes not needed can be repaired.

THEN,   I am ready to hang the new wall paper!  

 I am so sorry for the difference in font size....I am trying to correct but my post is not co operating!
