"Hannah liked the deep windowsill from her house's thick stone walls, but she didn't like how tiny the shower was, how the sliding shower door was about to fall off, and how the bathroom tile was in rough shape with Sharpie-marker stencil designs on it. (The room was last updated in the '80s or '90s.) "It felt really cold and echoey, with wall to wall white," she says. Here's how she gave it a colorful makeover."
""We removed the bidet, shuffled the toilet down toward the external wall (relatively cost-efficient since it was along the same line of plumbing), and moved the sink to the opposite wall than it was previously (next to where the bidet was)," Hannah says. "This freed up the wall next to the shower to allow us to add a much longer one.""
The bathroom under the eaves had one sloped side and a deep windowsill from thick stone walls, but suffered a tiny shower, a failing sliding door, and dated tile with Sharpie stencil designs. The bidet was removed, the toilet moved toward an external wall, and the sink relocated to free up wall space for a longer shower. A contractor completed demo, plumbing changes, fixtures, and new tile. Tongue-and-groove paneling, a chair rail, fresh paint, and complex wallpaper were added, with careful planning and informal advice to handle corners, hidden cupboards, and window reveals, finishing the colorful makeover.
