The prognosis is promising for this bath now that a practical , high - style exhibitioner has moved in .
Someone in Kim Rivera ’s star sign was n’t happy about sharing a bathroom . And it was n’t her kids . Izabel and Richie were used to take turns in the5x8 - animal foot bathbetween their sleeping room . But once they stopped using the bathing tub , Kim found herself in air outside her own bath , waiting for the exhibitioner . It was time to reclaim her space and give the teenagers amore utilitarian john .
The family bathroom makeover was made potential with a biz - changing update : A fixed chicken feed jury was added to delineate a shower that fill the space of the original 1948 pink vat . To waterproof the sales booth , white ceramic underpass tile over cement table runs floor to ceiling and wraps the edges of the windowpane recess .
What makes the new doorless rain shower body of work ? Moving the controls to the opposite rampart , go up a pan - style showerhead on a curved arm , and protecting the surface with tile . The shower inspired ablack - and - blank gloss schemethat lifts the whole room .
Paint give the old bathroom vanity an low-cost mini makeover . Shiny Modern ironware that match the elbow room ’s faucet and appurtenance fill in the amour propre makeover . A round mirror with a strap look to hang from the new lightheaded fixture ( it ’s actually mounted to the wall ) and continues the black - and - white color schema . Its orotund frame contrasts the geometrical lines of the base on balls - in exhibitioner .
Floating shelveswith spray - painted brackets increase video display space but not ocular weight . The bathroom storage holds artwork and makeup brushes , while a tray on top of the toilet corrals health spa - solar day essentials .
For an easy and affordable update , consider swapping out the subsist faucet . In this bathroom , a new bronze faucet modernize the old sinkhole . The single - handle lever tumbler elan is easier to turn over on and keep clean than atraditional two - handle model . Plus the warm metallic element finish counters the room ’s cool surface .
snap up the roofing tile base would have required a pneumatic hammer . Instead , the homeowners took a simpler route . They covered the tile with budget - favorable peel - and - joint vinyl tiles . The intricate figure on the floor tile adds stake to the otherwise neutral space .
Mounting the shower panel was just as well-situated . It ’s guarantee in two black channels with percipient silicone . Its black finish tally a modern edge to classic subway roofing tile and beige wall paint . Not only did this renovation add stylus and role to the once - dated lavatory , but it also improved the whole family ’s morning routine . Now a line forms outside the toilet .
