Birdsong Cottage: Bathroom decor...


Hello and greetings from the "Other Perch"! I wanted to show you some of our decor in making the most out of an old single wide mobile home bathroom.  I am still posting this week using a combination of iPad and iPhone, neither of which I feel a great deal of comfort with, as the Blogger apps on both could certainly use a facelift. So please bear with me!  


We started with old yellow-painted paneling on the walls and decided to make the most of it by simulating a bead board look. We added chair rail...



This is the painted hutch that I showed you in our garage in an earlier post. It now looks great in this bathroom...


A great way to hold towels, purchased in Pier One...


A sweet towel holder found in an antique store...



We are replacing all the mismatched door knobs with these oil-rubbed bronze ones...



Part of the shower curtain against the dark grey walls and faux bead board...



Another view showing the lighting and mirror that had recently been replaced by a previous owner...



I haven't fine-tuned the decorating yet as we have spent so much time doing all of the heavy work, but we're happy with it so far!

Thanks for visiting!

  1. My gosh Sue -- you have outdone yourself with this bathroom remodel...the word that comes to mind is "classy"...and even "swanky" -- it's lovely how you've taken something drab and turned it into fab!

    1. Thanks! Mr. Perch and I agreed that this is our favorite room so far, likely because it did start off so lifeless. XO
