To (smugly) show you my new bathroom that cost £150...

The other day I posted asking for advice about how to revamp my bathroom in my first home (first pic) and I received some really helpful comments, alongside the typical Mumsnet ones that are a) bitchy and b) unhelpful 😁

But, here is the end result! We spent no more than £150 and did it all ourselves! Yay :-)

Looks great! Can I ask what you changed? My bathroom is in desperate need of a revamp.

JackieCollinshasnoauthority · 28/08/2021 17:11

Getting rid of the light above the mirror is the biggest improvement. Those things remind me of hospitals.

Looks lovely. Have you ever painted before?

dontstealmymagnolias · 28/08/2021 17:11

That's lovely OP! Do you have a before pic?

firsthome2333 · 28/08/2021 17:12

Thanks all! The before pic is the first one! I'll attach another xx

That looks lovely! What have you done - removed mirror light, painted the walls, towel rail, sink unit?

MrsRobbieHart · 28/08/2021 17:15

What were the bitchy and unhelpful comments on the first thread? Confused

MagnoliaBeige · 28/08/2021 17:15

That looks so much better, I think I responded on your original post! Just goes to show what a difference a few small changes can make!

It looks lovely ☺️

That's a great transformation and an absolute bargain - you should be proud!

Peanutsandchilli · 28/08/2021 17:37

Looks lovely. Just goes to show that you don't need a huge budget to make a vast improvement. I could do to get off my backside and freshen my bathroom up!

AnonymousCheerleader · 28/08/2021 17:46

I really like it. Well done.

Even if you are abusing AIBU... 🤣
