While your bathroom isn\u2019t exactly a gathering place like most of the other rooms in your house, it\u2019s one of the most visited. If that\u2019s not reason enough to make it as comfortable and pleasant as possible, our bathroom inspiration makeover will give you just the push you need to elevate yours with style and functionality in mind.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve ever visited a bathroom outside your home and been impressed by its aesthetic, you know this is a room with great potential to shine. And while our bathroom renovation is modest and family friendly, it has its own unique flair as well. Our simple, yet chic, farmhouse-inspired look is basic enough to work inside any home, but with a few thoughtful details, it\u2019s also distinguished and refined.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After the initial labor\u2014removing the drywall, fixtures, bathtub, etc.\u2014we were able to prime the old, brown walls before applying a fresh coat of paint. Because of the moisture-prone nature of a bathroom, the ideal choice for this job was KILZ\u00ae<\/sup> Mold and Mildew Primer<\/a>. This water-based primer-sealer-stain blocker is specially designed for residential surfaces in high humidity, moisture, and temperature environments.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Taking our bathroom walls from dark to light, was a breeze thanks to our primer\u2019s ability to hide the previous color<\/a>. It offers excellent adhesion and provides a solid anchor for paints. The EPA-registered active ingredient in this primer creates a mold and mildew-resistant film, specially formulated to protect the primed surfaces from these issues so you can paint with confidence.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Once dry, painting the walls with a bright, yet neutral white, could not have been simpler. The paint went on smooth and blemish-free, and thanks to our primer<\/a>, no traces of the previous, dull, brown paint could poke through. Natural light from the window made it easy to build upon the brightness in this space with finishing touches from the fixtures, tile, lighting, and d\u00e9cor. Lastly, the sliding glass shower door creates clean lines, beautiful transparency, and an overall modern feel.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To update an older bathroom, you\u2019ll want to first consider the scope of the project. For example, our renovation included a newly-tiled shower, brand new flooring, updated lighting and fixtures, and a modern vanity. We chose to accentuate brightness by adding decorative accents to complement the color palette, however, you may choose a look that\u2019s vibrant and colorful<\/a> or something more bold and dramatic.<\/a> Working out the details is where you get to put on your designer hat and let your creativity shine.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At the end of the day, the perfect primer is essential to achieving a beautiful result, which is why we can\u2019t recommend KILZ products enough for jobs like these. We hope this bathroom makeover inspires you to assemble your group, or embark solo, and create something special in one the most-visited areas of your home.<\/p>\n
