Vintage Modern Hall Bathroom Refresh Plans
Affordable bathroom decor for the perfect vintage modern bathroom makeover! Were you starting to wonder if our basement bathroom was the only bathroom in our house?

I'd love to renovate them again, but we're currently saving for a major kitchen/first floor renovation, which is leaving little in the budget for bathrooms. Refusing to let that stop me from creating a space I love, I'm planning an affordable vintage modern makeover for our hall bathroom! ...

It was sitting outside, the top veneer was warped and peeling off, but I could immediately see the potential. It had great curves and old stem cast iron wheels that I couldn't resist. I knew a little Seagull Gray milk paint and gold hardware would give this dated and damaged console table the update it needed. Lucky for me, no one else saw the potential and I was able to get it for a steal. ...
