Well I did not know where to put this one so it ends up in the vent.
2 weeks ago my mother decided to get rid of her old blue bath in the bathroom. So we had to remove the old ceramic tiles on the wall for the shower, then when we removed the bath; we had to cut some drywall and the first row of ceramic tiles on the floor. Now since we had no other tiles of the same canvas we ripped it all off. Then my mother decided that the vanity was outdated (in fact, it was a long time ago lol).
So we ended up with a complete bathroom renovation project. A thing that was supposed to cost about 500$ finished with 2500$. But that's the point I want to talk about. After nearly completion, this bathroom looks like we spent double the budget. It's not the first time we renovate but I didn't think that with a "small" budget, we could make something that is magazine-good-looking (?). It might not approach your beautiful houses but I'm way proud of what I accomplished with what little we had. Anyways, it gives me some experience for my next home theater build
Since my mom doesn't have any taste for decoration past year 1987 (lol), she let me choose all the colors/textures/finish. I've always been a fan of decorating a contemporary home (heck, I even like to go clothes shopping with my gf)(no I'm not gay lol).
Ceramic tiles: 400$
Bath: 400$
Custom vanity: 1000$
Labour (mostly our neighbour who's a retired home builder): 500$
Drywall and other supplies (plumbing, borders, lighting & other stuff): 200$
Here are some pictures of the nearly finished project. Missing the custom-made mirror and decorations. Room is 5x10. Sorry for the quality of the pictures. My camera is getting old.
Overall (with flash):
Pan without flash:
Custom make vanity. I chose the design, color and coutertop (including "Corian" border). Look at the amazing color I ended up with:
