Bathroom Makeover!

For a week now, I've been making the most of IKEA Sale offers. I got a nod from Hubby to redecorate our bathroom. We've been on the apartment for a year and a half and I think it's time for a whole new bath look. Besides, come September we will be having visitors for the Eid Holiday so that is more reason to redecorate.

I bought an elegant white shower curtain with ruffle trimmings, some pretty scented candles in all shades of green to match the new apple green bathroom mat. I brought in lucky bamboo plants in a tall rectangular red glass vase for a hint of romance hihi. From red and blue his and hers bath towels, we are now in soft hues of orange and green thanks to a previous Marks & Spencer sale.

I am all for modern look these days because our previous bath theme decor was of Japanese zen with more of wood pieces and earth colors. I am also discarding our four-year old weighing scale in favor of a glass digital bathroom scale (I read that the electronic ones are more accurate). Lastly, I need a 15x20 abstract painting framed in glass to complement the whole look.

Hopefully, Hubby and our visitors will be pleased!
