Bathroom redone

Our master bathroom needed some help. It is itty bitty, but serves its purpose. But aesthetically, it was just pathetic.

All of the towel racks were silver and gold combined. I never liked them at all. Notice the cabinets. They were stained a yellow-brown many years ago. They were scratched and faded.
Our bathroom light looked like a dressing room mirror from the backstage of the theatre. The paint was the same flat cream that all the walls were covered in when we moved in three years ago. I never hung a thing on the walls because there was no inspiration. Thankfully, the tile is an off-white and the countertop is a cream and tan swirl (faux marble) pattern. Those were both okay. Last fall I bought everything needed to redo the bathroom. It has been sitting in a corner of our bedroom collecting dust until yesterday. We invested less than $100 total.

Here are the AFTER shots:
The walls are painted light gray ("Lampshade Grey"). The cabinets are black (high gloss). We bought polished silver knobs, towel racks, and a light fixture. I moved some art and that yard sale cabinet on the walls. I even had the blue hand towel monogrammed by my sister-in-law last year when I bought the paint! The shower curtain is a simple white eyelet with baby blue trim. I am loving the transformation!
