Master Bathroom Reveal

February 25, 2022 by Bethany Sy

WHAT A JOURNEY! What a labor of love! What a pain in the booty!

I never dreamed how much work it would be to turn a weird little bedroom into a glorious master bathroom. But was it worth it? YES.

Before shot of weird little room... soon to be master bath!

This room started out as, what I would describe as a weird little room that’s too small to be a bedroom. It’s where we would throw random stuff that doesn’t have a home. The blueprints of our house call it the ‘sewing room’.

But since there’s only one full bath in the house (that we’ve all been sharing, obvi), we decided to make this room our master bathroom! We even relocated the doors from the hallway to our bedroom! The girls helped us tear it down to the studs.

Demo

Kiddos helping with demo

Then came new plumbing, electrical, insulation, drywall, heated floors, tiling, etc! How about a little walk down memory lane?

Demo of weird little room so it can become the ULTIME master bathroom!

What a wild ride!

We were so fortunate to be able to partner with Ferguson for many elements of this bathroom, and we are always floored by the quality of their products and the vastness of their selection (no matter what your style!). Their website really is a one-stop-shop for all things kitchen and bath.

Master Bathroom Reveal!

I will share a list of allllll the sources for this master bathroom at the end of this post. But I want to highlight some of our favorite things in this post! (you can also click here to see our Ferguson products and many similar items!)

Bathroom Vanity

Nick built the walnut bathroom vanity from scratch, and I’m SO OBSESSED with it. It brings so much warmth to this space! The counters are quartz, and the rectangular undermount sinks are Kohler (through Ferguson).

View of the entire master bathroom. It'e like a SPA!
Dreamy, handmade walnut vanity with gold handles.
Quartz counter with twin sinks and faucets with vertical backsplash subway tile.

I love the shape of these mirrors. They’re unexpected, but also feel classic in a way. And the way they’re flanking the sentimental stained glass art that my mom made makes me SO HAPPY! I love incorporating sentimental things into my design. (still need to paint the trim around the stained glass, but we can overlook that, right?)

Mirrors flanking the rainbow stained glass window.

Nick built this cubby shelving into the little wall next to the toilet, and I love how pretty AND practical it is. (just like him) 😉

Vanity mirrors and corner shelf with plants!

Shower

Our shower feels like it belongs in the boujiest of spas. It is truly what dreams are made of. The hexagon tile (which is also on the floor of the bathroom) is linked here, and the shower doors here.

Would you look at this pebble flooring?! I can’t get over it!

Pebble shower floor

We’re making our way around the bathroom, aren’t we?! I made this towel rack with my own two hands using leftover walnut from the vanity. IT’s a knockoff from Rejuvination, and I looooove it. This side of the room really needed some warm wood tones, and it feels so perfect here!

Handmade towel rack

Soaker Tub

Guys, I never thought I was into taking a bath, but I’m an entirely different person now. This tub has changed me. Every bathroom needs a soaker tub.

Honestly, that window was just screaming for a tub in front of it, so even if I still didn’t love baths, I would have NO REGRETS. And look at that tub filler! So classy!

Chandelier

And this light? I didn’t decide on it until every single other element of the bathroom was finished. I wanted to be able to stand back, look at the room, and decide what it NEEDS there above the tub. And I’m so glad I waited! Doesn’t it look like bubbles? Perfect for above a bathtub!

    This is jaw droppingly gorgeous! Could you share the dimensions of your bathroom and possibly a pic of what looks to be a tall cabinet along side the vanity? We have a long but narrow master bath with just a shower. I would like to add a tub but don’t know if it would fit logistically. you seem to capture all components with a tub and double vanity – looks amazing. Thank you!

    Love the way the sinks are set under the edge of the surrounds, if that makes sense! So many sinks are set into the surround, making it impossible to sweep across a surface straight into the sink. Well done!!

    So hard to pick a favorite! But I love the personal touches – the vanity Nick made, the towel rack you made, the stained glass window, the fact that you reused the doors from the original rom. But probably my favorite “non-sentimental, homemade” touch is the pebble shower floor!!!!!

    I love all of the materials used that bring in earth finishes against gold and black. Creates such an awesome balance (and helps inspire me with my bathroom☺️). Also LOVE how you incorporated in the stained glass. So beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Can’t wait to see what’s next.

    What an amazing journey it has been. Thank you for bringing us all along. Knowing how much time, thought, blood, sweat and tears you both put into this, it’s so hard to say which is my favorite. It all has come together so nicely. Your mom’s stained glass hooked me, and the craftsmanship of the vanity and the towel rack is beyond words. Every little detail was covered and made by you and Nick. When I look at the bathroom as a whole all of those elements flow so nicely together. The bubble chandelier, though… it just POPS and makes the space magical and unique – like y’all. It’s that quirky surprise that I love about following you.

I’m hoping it’s the master bedroom! Now that you have your new bedding and mattress…a refresh would look so pretty through those french bathroom doors!
