Before and After

Today   I'm   going to be talking  about a Before & After in the bathroom....(a la hgtv).

Everyone loves a good  before and after. There are tons  of tv   programs  that work out of  this thought . We just  love to see things go from dark , dingy , and dispicable  to beautiful  and full of life.

Here is a before and after in a bathroom designed  by an HGTV interior decorator. Below this  are my thoughts and comments on this room. Note that, these are only   thoughts  on the remodel. What are your thoughts on the room ?

So, the aweful   linolium  floor got replaced by a beautiful marble hexagonal pattern floor. I love this change. It is traditional and sophisticated, yet in a way, shabby chic. I also love the pops of yellow in the room. It really gives the space a happy and restful feel. The antique claw foot tub is lovely and adds that hint of charm to the room. Though this bathroom isn't huge, it feels like it is large enough to be cozy but not causing claustraphobia. There is a great window in the space, but most of it felt covered up by the drab and dark curtains in the before photo. To me, this is a bathroom I would want to spend some time in. It has this sort of lure that seems to require relaxation. I love the simplicity of the space. There is not a ton going on. The graphic print on the curtains is just enought to add some interest but not to over-crowd the eye. In other words, it doens't distract you from other things in the space. I'm a fan of this bathroom makeover!

I'm also a fan of our houses on College Station Real Estate  and Cedar Park Homes .   

Hope your Wednesday is wonderful!
