Refresh of the Bathroom

 

I don't know about you guys but I have never been a fan of ceramic tiles with grout.  Actually anything with grout!  It is hard to keep clean and white.
When we bought this condo the owner had just re done this bathroom. She decided to not. only put the tiles on the floor but also half way up the walls.

Not a look I would have gone for but to each his own!  
It must have been very expensive to have these tiles put up the wall.  
I do not think it looks hideous or anything,  I just do not like the look or how much cleaning energy goes into having these on the floor and walls.

So what's a gal to do?!  Well... I got Terry on board to put up beadboard or wainscoting.  
The tiles are thick and would be a huge task to get them off the wall.  Not only the mess but the noise and being in a condo we are trying to be respectful to our neighbors.

So you are probably thinking hmm with how thick those tiles are on the wall how will they be able to put up bead board flat to the wall without taking down the tiles?
We have a plan and I hope it will work out. 

I think the headboard is going to give me a more cottage look. 

We are going to show you what we do to make this look good and yet the tiles underneath will be unharmed.  
Just in case we sell one day and the buyer wants this look back.

As soon as we are done with this project I will do a post on this before and how the after comes out.
Stay tuned.
In the meantime have a great rest of the week.
