I’m still in shock that this is MY primary bathroom. The blood, sweat and tears that have gone into this space really help me to have the greatest appreciation for it. This bathroom is full of SO many small DIYs that I’m truly just so proud of. I’ve compiled all of the sources and projects that took place to create such a beautiful space.

Walls & Flooring:

Let’s start with the flooring. The tile I chose for the floor were actually rectangle porcelain tiles. Because of that, each piece had to be cut to 12″ (the white pieces had to be cut on THREE sides) and then polish/grind the edges smooth. Since it was a very complicated project, I decided to have my contractor, Angel, tackle this tiling project, while I tiled the rest of the bathrooms. I couldn’t find a porcelain or ceramic tile that was polished with simple veining that came in a square (I could only find expensive marble) which is why I went the labor intensive route and choose 12×24 tiles and cut them. With this tile floor being a walkway into our closet and a high traffic room, I didn’t want the high maintenance of having marble on the floor as well as in the shower.

Vanities:

The Vanities were a hybrid build. I had wanted to have white oak, inset vanities with drawers and the quote I got was $4500 per vanity. Sure I could have changed the style and not done drawers, real white oak, or inset, but I found a way to get my dream vanities for a fraction of my quote.

Mine cost $1001 ($313 doors, $476 carcass, $212 drawers & hardware).  For these vanities, I went with a 21″ depth and a 24″ depth to give a little bump out. I designed the cabinets and ordered the boxes from Cabinotch. I also ordered the details Chapman doors raw from Fastcabinetdoors, then assembled everything. As for DIY, I built the slab drawer fronts and end panels from scratch, and then stained and sealed it all by hand. While these were a hybrid build, I did build my other vanities from scratch, as well as the cabinet boxes.

Get a bidet

If you are on the fence in your new build on getting a bidet or not, I would say it is DEFINITELY worth the splurge. At least in the building phase put an electrical outlet in all your toilet rooms so you have the option in the future. The Bidetmate 6000 makes you never want to sit on another toilet ever again and I truly mean that. It automatically opens when it senses you walk into the room. With the push foot button it’ll raise the seat (for the guys in your life), and for us women, after sitting on it, it senses your weight is off the toilet seat and it flushes and closes for you without you pushing any button. Did I mention the toilet seat is HEATED, and of course has all the bidet features for a front wash, back wash, and adjustable warmth of water and pressure.

I’m thrilled that this room is finally finished and can’t wait to start tackling the other bathrooms/rooms in my house. Be sure to follow along on IG where I share my projects in real time!
