From Beige to Beauty

My bathroom was looking a little drab even though I had just bought some great silver metallic pieces to give it a little bit more of a fancy feel that I was looking for. I live in an apartment where I can't paint, but can wallpaper so I decided that was the best option and then I came across this wallpaper, I knew it was exactly what I was looking for the turquoise/blue colour that can be seen throughout my apartment, and the metallic that I was looking for to draw in all of the accessories.

Thanks to my handy dandy boyfriend, this project definitely took under an hour and was really easy to do. The total was only $20 thanks to the sale on the wall paper. We simply immersed sections of the wall paper into a big bucket filled with room temperature water and stuck it on the wall where we wanted it, and smoothed out with a sponge to get rid of bubbles.

Here is a photo of the plain beige bathroom before:


And here is the finished product with the wall paper :) 


 I love it! I think it makes it a lot more lively and looks a lot more luxurious!
Thankfully, I also got a free tile floor rather than the previous laminate a couple weeks later! I love my bathroom!
