A Dreamy Natural Travertine Bathroom Makeover

When Brianne sent us her before and after bathroom pics, we couldn’t wait to share her transformation. Here’s her letter:

We totally made over our bad builder bathroom. Basically we started with a stark white bathroom full of linoleum and brass fixtures that had NO closet (who doesn’t have a closet in the full bath?). Basically, it was my worst nightmare every time I went in there, but my handy hubby Bill stole some space from the hallway and added a closet, built a vanity by hand, and built a frame for an old mirror that we had laying around. Then we got a new lower profile toilet and a brand new tub/shower. Bill tiled the floor and walls with travertine and then we painted the rest of the room a putty color to give a very earthy/spa feel. We also bought a raised sink and a piece of granite for the counter. Quite the contrast to the stark white room that we purchased with the house. Anyway, enjoy it! We certainly do! -Brianne

Talk about a transformation. And we can’t believe that Bill did almost everything himself. I mean he made that vanity- insane! Thanks so much for sharing your pics Bri. It looks like a fabulous place to relax after a long day. That travertine is positively dreamy.
