Bathroom Make-over!

I love to decorate.  Unfortunately, I have kind of expensive taste when it comes to decorating (ie Pottery Barn, Ballard Designs, etc) and with (almost) 5 kids, the budget just doesn't allow for that.  So, many of the rooms in my house have sat undecorated.  But...I've stumbled upon some blogs of other women with the same problem who have been able to make their homes beautiful, while living debt free.  They've really inspired me to finally take over the chaos that rules my house and make it a beautiful, decorated, organized space.

So...my first project of the new year is the girls' bathroom.  Currently, it is sporting tan walls (that match the rest of the house), a ripped frog-themed shower curtain, a white rug that blends in perfectly with the tile, a boring towel rack and no personality whatsoever.

(Sorry about the picture quality.  My camera broke and I have to use my phone.)

I have some really cute ideas for making this a fun, girly bathroom, beginning with a new, ruffly shower curtain and some custom made (by me) hanging towels.  Which reminds me...that towel bar will have to go to make room for some cute little knobs to hang the towels on.  Definitely a new, more girlish, color for the wall and a little picture frame molding to add some character.  Oh, and of course, a new rug.

The best part...all of this will be done as budget-friendly as possible.  I'm really excited for the challenge.  I think it's really easy to have a beautiful home when you have $$$ to spend, but it takes a little more effort when you don't.
