Master Bathroom Paint Colors + Source List
The main goal of this blog is to inspire you to make your home simply beautiful on a budget.
Check the average cost of remodeling a bathroom and you will see why a budget matters. We wanted a designer look without the designer price tag, so every choice came down to smart materials and fixtures with a high-end look.
My job is to do the research and shop around for the best deals, so you get the designer look for less.
Think of me as the friend you love to shop with because she knows where all the great deals hide.
Friends who know how to shop and keep secrets? Those are the friends you keep.
We love farmhouse style for our home’s interior. For the master bathroom, we also wanted timeless touches and classic elements. Above all, we needed a functional space on a budget.
Our goals for the en suite bathroom:
- Make the space timeless and fitting with our hundred-year-old home
- Find affordable fixtures with a high-end look
- Add handmade touches with DIY decor projects
Our choices won’t suit everybody. Use them as a guide when you plan your own bathroom makeover.
Here are the paint colors and sources for our master bathroom.

Come see what’s inside the bathroom vanity and cabinet in the post about how to organize the master bathroom.
I also wanted to share some news with all of you. We feel so honored to say that the built-in bed we made for Taylor’s room will be featured in the October issue of This Old House magazine! This will be the first time anything we’ve done has been in a magazine and I’m truly ecstatic!
What is the dimensions of the master bath only? Also the inside of the shower that is covered by ship lack is that tile inside?
What were the dimensions of the guest bedroom that you absorbed ?
Hi Anisha. The guest bedroom we used was 12′ x 12′ or 144 square feet. Thanks for stopping by!
hello, this bathroom piece is fabulous and inspiring -thanks for so much detail! we are renovating the tiniest bathroom in a tiny season beach cottage. i would like to install a shower similar to yours shown here, however in my search there is a dramatic range of prices. the cheap ones (like the one you include a link to on eBay) concern me- that they come with installation problems. did you have any issues installing yours? was is compliant with US plumbing codes or fittings? thank you!

Thank you so much for visiting our blog and I’m glad you like the details we put into our master bathroom. I asked my husband about the shower since he did the installation. First of all, he said it didn’t come with instructions. The other thing he wanted to mention is you have to really pay attention to the finish wall depth with this particular model. Other than that, the fittings are compliant with US plumbing fittings. For our area, there are no particular codes that deal with the type of faucets we can use, but we followed code as far as installation. Now, would I purchase this model again? I’d pay more for a shower faucet that has a thermostatic valve. This one does not. And If I was hiring out the work for installation, I would’ve have bought something that was easier to install. We took our chances with this particular model, but luckily it’s worked well with no issues so far. Have fun renovating your beach cottage bathroom!
