A Contractor-Free Bathroom Renovation You Won’t Believe

The Finished Bathroom AFTER: A new large round mirror above the sink gave the room some much-needed personality and creates the illusion of more space. To install the new mirror I unscrewed the door of the old medicine cabinet from the wall. With the door gone I hung the mirror right over the recessed part of the cabinet, rendering it inaccessible for daily use, but luckily we’d added storage elsewhere. Next, I switched out the old light for this cool long-arm sconce. I feel pretty comfortable changing out light fixtures, but if you’re not, definitely hire a pro to help. Both of these simple changes are great solutions for renters! Just rehang the original light and the mirrored door when you leave. To finish things off, a couple of sleek new hooks were added to the wall for hanging towels or robes. By far the best part of the entire process was welcoming my friends to their new and improved bathroom! Photo by Manuel Rodriguez
