My Bathroom Renovation Story on Domino

Posted on May 26, 2016

Bathroom Renovation I’ve never really given you guys a peek at the demo or progress photos behind my bathroom renovation, but today that’s all changing. I’m sharing the COMPLETE story on Domino Magazine in a detailed interview (so crazy!!)… complete with the not-so-glamorous moments of this space.

    Sarah, this is so incredible!

    Congratulations on the feature, and as a fellow remodeling addict, I’m over here all giddy over the drastic transformation as if it’s my own bathroom! Haha

    Gorgeous and clever! Is the vanity black, or Ikea’s “black-brown”?

      Thanks, Summer! I actually painted the vanity black. I initially painted it blue and then decided to take it a different direction. ha!

    Congratulations on the feature! Tons of great advice! I love seeing the before and in between pictures. I think it’s so cool that you and your husband did most of it by yourselves. Your story is really motivating to people who can’t decide if they should dive in! Your home is absolutely beautiful. I love every detail!

      Thank you, Carrie! I don’t have a source list for this particular look, but I have sourced my bathroom in the past. You can find a similar look here, that includes tile, plumbing fixtures, vanity, etc. Enjoy your weekend!! xo

    This is so great Sarah- what paint did you use on the ikea cabinet and was there any prep? Which cabinet front did you get. I have been wanting to do this but lacked the courage! I have the simple white non glossy surface. Any advise would I be amazing!!

      Thanks, Kris! I used Benjamin Moore Black Panther. Prior to painting… I lightly sanded and primed with Zinsser primer. The cabinet front was the faux wood (really ugly but I liked the grain). It was a really fast, easy project… and four years later, it’s still holding up great! Not even a chip or flake of paint. Good luck! xo

        Was the paint a satin finish?

          Yes! It was leftover interior wall paint from my bedroom.
