$50.00 Girls Bathroom makeover
Budget Diva
I really needed to redo my sweet little 6 year old boring bathroom! It is a very nice bathroom but I needed a budget "pick me up". Here's the bathroom before...
Like I said, it's just plain! So we needed to come up with a theme together. My 6 year old daughter is in LOVE with animal print ( I wonder why :P ) so we decided to go with zebra print. I set a budget for $50.00. That would include EVERYTHING! (Shower curtain, shower curtain rings, rugs, toothbrush holder, organizers, decor, etc)
I went to three stores:
1. Goodwill
2. Ross
3. Dollar Store
( I also had to order her custom name wall decal online)
I wanted to makeover the wood cabinet but didn't want to paint it because kids change there minds as they grow up! So I found this zebra print locker/wall adhesive. Perfect!!! I cut strips to fit into the cabinet doors and walla! A 7 dollar cabinet makeover.
Zebra Print Wall Adhesive: $6.99 (Ross)
Hand towel rack: $3.99 (Goodwill)
Zebra print duck tape: $1.00 (dollar store)
Zebra hand towels: $5.99 (Ross)
I found this cute set of poodle bathroom accessories at the goodwill. SCORE! Perfect! And at the dollar store they had cotton swabs already in this cute plastic container. I just wrapped duck tape around it to match everything else. About $4.50 for all that!
Cotton Swap Holder: $1.00 (dollar store)
Poodle Tooth brush holder: $.49 (Goodwill)
Poodle cotton ball holder: $2.97 (Goodwill)
Above the toilet really needed to most work. I had a shelf that I saved from a broken TV cabinet. I used that and brackets I had stored to make a shelf above the toilet. Used my daughter Easter basket (since you only use it once a year anyway!) to store her extra hand towls in. Found this awesome skull canvas print at goodwill for $2.47, so of course I snatched that right up. :)
Skull canvas picture: $2.47 (Goodwill)
Name wall decal: $5.99 (eBay)
Anyone that has little girls know you have a million different hair ties, hair bows, head bands, hair clips, etc. I needed them to be organized and stored so both my daughter and I could have easy access to them. I went to the dollar store and got these 3 bins. I also had these little desk organizers laying around that I used inside of the bins.
3 storage bins: $3.00 (dollar store)
And last but not least. I needed a shower curtain and bath mats. I knew it would be hard to find zebra print at goodwill. And shower curtains alone will cost you around 25 bucks! So Ross it was! I found a WHOLE set for only $16.99. That included the shower curtain, shower curtain hooks, a bath mat, and a toilet bath mat.
Bath Set: 4: $16.99 (Ross)
And here is the result:
My daughter loves it and I am pretty happy with the $50.00 result!
