Why “done” and not just…done? I haven’t figured out what to hang over the toilet! It’s what the room is missing, so I don’t want to declare complete doneness until that’s done.
I last left off with a little sneak peek of our new tub, tile surround, and tile floor and also how we solved a little looks vs. durability dilemma. We have since painted the walls, re-installed and painted the baseboards, installed the vanity and sink, hung a new mirror, split out the single light fixture into two sconces (with the help of my dad), and added additional towel hooks. We did all this while painting the laundry room and patio doors, so we’ve been busy around here!
And just as a reminder, here’s where we started.
I am so smitten over the color we chose. It is Sherwin Williams Mega Greige. The mirror is by Allen+Roth from Lowe’s and the sconces are by Martha Stewart from Home Depot (and a total steal!).
Every time I find a new color I really like, I get the urge to paint my whole house that color. But, I’m sure that will pass. I really do like it a lot though.
The vanity is so so so functional. Vanities in general often seem less than efficient with storage to me, but this one by St. Paul has the perfect sized drawers and the perfect combo of drawers and cabinet. I wish all vanities came with a pullout bottom drawer. It is exactly the right height for extra TP, and there is still room to spare for more storage of stuff. The side drawers are deep enough to still be functional, and the cabinet part is just the right size for all of our taller bottles. And it was only $289!
The counters are Silestone Lagoon and the sink is a Kohler Archer. Check out my durable bathroom materials post for all the deets on why we chose Silestone.
The floors are Florim Stratos Avorio, a porcelain 12×24 tile.
The beveled white subway tiles are are classic and functional. I’ve started wiping down the shower each time I get out to keep our grout fresh and new, and it really keeps the shower so much cleaner overall.
The hand shower is amazing. It’s set low right now to accommodate my 5’1 height. Marty raises it up when he gets in. It really is so much more comfortable to have showerhead at your own custom height.
And these Silestone corner shelves make me so happy to be done with our old grungy shower caddy.
I also hung a couple hooks right outside the shower for extra towels.
We went with larger hooks made by Martha Stewart from Home Depot because I find that they help with drying out the towels better. I think these are technically called robe hooks if you are searching for something similar.

This looks great! Seriously, every time you guys finish a room, I just want to move right in! So you just let me know when, and I’ll have my bags packed, mmmkay? ;)
Super job!

Beautiful!!! If you don’t mind me asking, where did you get the shower curtain? I love it!!
Thanks! The shower curtain is from Target :)
I love this redo! How easy is it putting the corner shelves in with the tiling??
We had installers do the shower surround tile, but they are installed at the same time as the tile, so they set the shelf on a row of tile, then cut the next row to fit around them. The thinset on the wall and the grout locks it in.
great job! i love how classic and timeless it looks and yet sooo fresh! i too just looove that shower curtain!
The whole thing is simply perfect! I especially love the floors. And the subway tile. And the sink. And the paint. Well… guess I love it all! I just know you will find the perfect thing to hang above the comode!
Such a pretty bathroom, I’m in love with your floor.
Your bathroom is beautiful! I love the white subway tile, the brushed nickel hardware and the flooring.
Your bathroom is beautiful! I love all of the choices you picked, the gray color on the walls, subway tile, vanity, lights…everything! So classy and classic!
What a gorgeous bathroom! We’re about to gut our master bath, and I’m nervous and excited at the same time! ;) I found you at Home Stories A to Z– thanks for sharing!

I really love that paint color. I can’t wait to get a home of my own and finally be allowed to paint my walls!
I’m gaga over this bathroom! I’m really digging the materials you used and am thrilled you listed them all out. We’re going to be building here in a few months and am trying to get a good list of materials going. Found you on A2Z and am so glad I clicked over!
very beautiful! a room to be proud of! I love the wall colors too and thank you for posting what color you used!
Love everything about this room. I need to do our guest bathroom and I think this is the perfect inspiration.
I absolutely love this bathroom, it is just gorgeous! WOnderful job.

Simply beautiful! I love.love.love. the tile you chose for the floor! Actually, I love every detail. Inspiring…I’m hoping we have a bathroom makeover in our near future. Thanks so much for sharing, Jena!
LOVE! I like love everything about this bathroom. :) I am a little biased since I have used similar floor tile in our home and have a very similar sink (Kholer, Kelston collection). Sure wish I would have used white subway tile in our guest bath. :( It looks awesome!
Great job! :) Stopping by from HOH.
So, so beautiful! I know what you mean about finding a substantial vanity. It looks like Home Deopt is selling the vanity for $594 online, but that includes the top. Were you able to get it cheaper without the top or was there a special sale? I love it!
Thanks Kristen! We bought just the vanity without the top shown here: http://www.homedepot.com/p/t/202487355?catalogId=10053&langId=-1&keyword=st+paul+manchester&storeId=10051&N=5yc1v&R=202487355#.UV7cpZOG3Dk

Excellent work!

My hall bathroom is this exact same layout. You give me hope that I can make it pretty.
I can’t find the Curtain, do you happen to know the link To find it??
Thx:)
Sorry, I can’t find it either :(. They might have sold out or stopped carrying it. It was on sale when I bought it.
Jena,
WOW!! It looks great. And I know how hard it is to get good pics of a small bathroom but you’ve done a great job. LOVE all your materials. The silestone is perfection!
Thanks so much for linking up.
xoxo
Loveliness! A bathroom redo is on my ‘someday’ list. Yours is fabulous!
I never would have thought to pair that fabulous Target shower curtain with gray walls, but… I’m liking it! You did a great job. And, really, are our homes ever just… done?
I’m sharing my kitchen makeover with Edie’s link up. I’d love for you to check it out: http://www.domesticblissdiaries.com/2013/04/the-bliss-project-14-going-gray.html
Hi! I just linked to your blog through Edie’s today. So glad I found you! Your bathroom is beautiful and I’m already in thoughts about making the no sew table runner and roman shades. And I just put Pledge on my grocery list for my stainless steel! Thanks! I will be back on a regular basis :)

YOUR*** not you’re, my computer likes to incorrectly ‘correct’ my spelling!
This looks fabulous! Grey is such a great color and I love the tone that you chose. I’m now following you on Pinterest (I would love a follow back) and looking forward to more inspiration! Stopping by from Inspire Me Please Blog Hop.
