Brylie’s Bathroom Makeover

Filed Under: DIY, Home Tour, Kids Bathroom

This little bathroom that Kaden and Brylie share has been in need of a makeover for quite some time! Brylie has been asking to take this project on all by herself. It’s her first really big diy space of her own and she did great!

She painted the vanity, the walls, and the hardware pulls all on her own! After the first night of painting the vanity, she came downstairs and said, “my body hurts, mom”. I finally have someone to share in my project body aches! And, talk about trying to get a photo of the smallest and darkest room in the house with an almost 12 year old…she’s such a cutie though!

She wanted to add a little shelf since there is not much storage in this small space. Trav (dad) made some brackets for us and we used a piece of plywood that we had on hand for the shelf…such a quick and easy project!

She also painted some rainbow art on a canvas and it fits in so perfectly on her new shelf!

Chester wanted in on the action even though he’s almost as big as the bathroom itself…but what would a renovated space be without Chester in the reveal?!

Chester is not sure what is going on here!

Brylie would love to hear in the comments below what you think of her little bathroom makeover. She had so much fun working on it!

  126. I love it, Brylie!! I love your artwork and watching you make your decisions. But most is all I love your your fearlessness to do this on your own. You took that paint roller and went to at those walls like a pro. That was awesome to see!! You go girl. ????

  127. Brylie,
    You did such a great job on your bathroom. Taking after your mother, I can hear how proud she is in this blog post.

  128. It looks fantastic! She is following in your footsteps beautifully! It’s so light and bright in there! I love that rug, too! ????

  129. What a great job! You’ve inspired me to make over our bathroom! i think your Mom has either a project buddy or maybe some competition!

  130. Wow!!! Well done!!! Nice update. But…the best part was hearing your 12 year old body hurt. Now, that helps me to accept why my old body always hurts after projects!!!!

  131. Absolutely gorgeous!!!! I have the same shower curtain!! Where is that stunning stool bench from may I ask?!

  134. Can you show a before & after? I want to paint out bathroom cabinets & my hubs is not on board. I want to show him what a difference it can make.

  135. Such a great job and looks so bright and airy for a small space. I wrote down the colors as I need to do my bathroom and kitchen as have no touch up from original, which is similar to your vanity color. Have A couple of questions….did you spray or paint vanity? If painted did you use brush, roller, sponge brush or all 3?(Did you sand or prep the vanity first. I’m MUCH older than you, like I’d be your grandma and I want to do mine and hope they could look as good as yours sweetie!

  136. Love Love this Bathroom!! Giving me all the inspiration! Where did you find those beautiful black hooks on the wall!
