Old Jones Home: Master Bathroom

This is a fun one - welcome to the master bathroom!  This room or should I say roomsss got a drastic makeover.  When we bought the house it was two separate rooms.  The laundry room...

And on the other side of the laundry room wall was a bathroom...

We removed the wall in between the two rooms to make room for one master bathroom.  During the renovation process...

Where our vanity and sinks would eventually be.  This was prior to running new plumbing.

Wall that separates the two rooms is down and ready for new plumbing, etc!

Where our showers would eventually be.

The Before/Under Construction of this wall

The After

I love the character that this buffet adds to the bathroom.  We found it on Craigslist.  Painted it, had quartz counter tops and sinks installed and added new knobs.  My favorite part is that behind this drawer are shelves with plenty of plugs to keep my blow dryer, etc. plugged in!

We went white with the walls and dark with the trim and vanity.  It was fun changing it up!

Before of this area...

And After

We placed this half wall here which adds shelves for storage as well as hides the plumbing!  The wall being built and sweet baby Mathis helping out.

The claw foot tub was still in the house, but as you can see needed some love.  We had it resurfaced and painted the exterior grey.

After

Charlie stained one of the wooden planks that was on the wall to use as a tub tray.

Before and during construction

After

I love the exposed pipe shower faucet.  A garden stool is a great alternative when you don't have room for a bench.

One of their favorite places to play in the house...

This is one of our favorite transformations.  Thanks for checking it out!

Old Jones Home: Master Bedroom

Welcome to the master bedroom...

I was told by a previous owner that our current master bedroom was originally the master bedroom but was later used as a kitchen!  Crazy to think that our master bedroom was once the kitchen.  Here are some pictures that I have when it was a kitchen.  This is where the armoire currently sits...

The kitchen was removed by the previous owner and converted back into a bedroom.  It looked like this before we started the renovation...

Before

After

My parent's got this armoire from an antique store that used to be in Sunnyvale, Texas.  And they generously passed it along to us recently.  The master bedroom has small closets, so it is perfect for extra storage.  And the full length mirror is nice as well.

Love the antique detail of the armoire...

The opening on the left went to the "Laundry Room" which is now our Master Bathroom and the door in the middle of the picture went to what is now our Dining Room.

Before

We brought both walls out on either side of the fireplace to create his and her closets.  Obviously closing off access from the Master Bedroom to the Dining Room.

After

Another one of my favorite pieces in the house - this fireplace mantle!

Before

After

Another bedroom favorite are the pair of ottomans at the foot of our bed.  I found them at an estate sale and had them recovered.  They are the dumping spot for our clothes - but I love them!

I would have thought this window bench was original to the house, because it fits perfectly under the windows.  But when one of the previous owners walked through the house with me she told me the story behind it.  She had bought it from an old house that was being torn down in Garland and thought that it would be a perfect fit for her kitchen - our Master Bedroom!

That is it for the master bedroom!  Thanks for taking a look!
