Before and After Modern Coastal Bathroom

Let’s start with a look back at what the bathroom looked like just 8 weeks ago.

Before shot of the Jack and Jill bathroom with cement floor, drywall and an aqua door.

The bathroom was roughed in with drywall, plumbing with a cement floor.

It was just a blank slate waiting for some personality.

After shot of the Jack and Jill bathroom with a navy blue shiplap wall, navy blue barn door, navy blue subway tile, accent table, modern rustic shelves with coastal decor over the toilet, and a natural wood vanity with black hardware and a white quartz countertop.

And now it’s the coastal modern bathroom of my dreams!

Every detail from the white hexagon tile floor, to the navy blue shiplap wall and subway tile, remind me of a coastal getaway!

It just speaks to me!

Thanks so much for following along! We’re truly grateful for your support and kind words of encouragement along the way! It’s almost hard to believe what this space looked like just 8 weeks ago. Perhaps more than that, it’s hard to believe that we tackled this entire project ourselves without hiring out any work!

I absolutely love this space! It’s so calm and relaxing and heaven knows I need more of that in my crazy little world!

Being in this space makes me feel like I’ve stepped back to a nostalgic beach getaway, where time stands still. I love the timeless and classic look of the tile work and board and batten wall.

Hands down my favorite decor elements are the framed vintage bathing suits and photos of my grandma and her mother wearing their bathing suits from the same time period.

I love incorporating sentimental items throughout my home. Seeing items or even photos of our loved ones frequently remind me of the life they led and inspire me to be better each day. I also imagine what it would be like if they were still here with us today. I can almost hear their sweet voices letting me know how proud they are of me for all we’ve accomplished.

More importantly it provides opportunities for me to talk about them with my own little family, where I’m able to teach about the plan of salvation and bear my testimony to them that I know we will live with them again some day.

It would mean the world to us to hear from you! Be sure to drop your questions and comments below!
