No one has a ton of money. And I don't recommend becoming house poor; however, I have always said that you have to be happy in your home for as long as you're going to be there. Living miserably in a place to save a dollar is not the way to do it either. When you see a bathroom you HATE you don't always have to gut it. You can make something ugly be beautiful again with some time, energy, and of course a little money.
Here you will see your typical mobile home "look" in this bathroom. The bones are good, the cabinets are solid, the floor is solid, and everything works. It just wasn't pretty to look at. In total we spent under $500 to completely redo this bathroom, the only thing I wanted to do, but did not was to refinish the bathtub which could have been done for an additional $100. Otherwise, there was new paint, added a new sink and vanity top, mirror, and light fixture. My wonderful husband, aka Hot Carpenter, built me a custom closet across from the toilet in a shallow wall space. We made every inch count!
Prior to adding shelving. As you can see it is a small space. But PERFECT for cleaning and bathroom products. I never used all this space.
I know I am partial, but I think my husband did an amazing job on these!!
Now for the final product of which I was very proud of!
