One Room Challenge Week 3: Vanities & Mood Board

It’s already week three of the One Room Challenge and we still have A LOT to do!  This week our custom vanities were delivered and I worked on the rest of my mood board!

Here is a refresher on the layout of the space we are remodeling:

Floor Tile

This space only has one small window so we chose this tile in white 12″x24″ for the floor tile! It is a white/light gray tile that I think will really brighten up the space!

Vanity Cabinets

I ended up choosing Mineral Gray from Sherwin Williams for the vanity cabinets.   This dark blue-grayish color is FAB and I love it!

My uncle actually made the vanities, doors, and drawers for us and he did an amazing job!  It is now my job to paint everything.

 

Besides the two new custom vanities, we are also putting new doors and drawers on the storage cabinet in the vanity room.  About a year ago, I painted the current storage cabinets, doors and drawers all white, but that was temporary.  So now I need to fill in some cracks, sand the cabinets and put a fresh coat of white on them before we install the brand new doors.

Mood Board

I also created my mood board this week!  A mood board helps me gather important aspects of the design all into one image so I can see our vision for the space.

I am still deciding on the wallpaper for the vanity room as I talked about in last week’s post.  I  am really struggling with choosing the wallpaper… I did pick one of the wallpaper samples I am leaning towards to include in the mood board above, but that is subject to change 🙂

Here are some of the wallpaper samples I received:

Lighting:

This past week I did decide on simple modern vanity lights for both the bathroom and vanity room.

Other Updates

I did find out that the tile floor is going to be installed at the end of next week.  This makes me a little worried that everything is going to be pushed back a week.  I am also concerned with how long the countertops to the vanities will take to get in because we can’t get them templated until the floor and vanities are installed.  The countertops will probably be the last thing we will be waiting on.  In the meantime, my goal for this week is to paint all the vanity cabinets and doors, buy some of the decor, make a final decision on wallpaper (this will be difficult!) and start demoing the floor and old vanities!
