I am so excited to write this post! We have finished our half bath remodel and it looks like a whole new bathroom. I am so happy with the way it turned out. My husband is amazing for going along with all my design ideas and implementing them perfectly. He worked so hard on this room and I love it!

Here is what our bathroom looked like before.

The bathroom was livable. It had a working toilet and sink and was clean. But as far as style was concerned, it was far from mine. I had visions of clean, light, simple, and a touch of farmhouse charm.

We went back and forth on replacing the vanity or not, and ultimately decided it needed to go. New floors, paint, vanity, and a new toilet were all on our list for this bathroom project. I knew what I wanted and we got to work! By we I really do mean John. I helped some with the shiplap and trim, but other than that it was really a one person job. The room is so small only one person could be in there working comfortably at a time.

This is our half bath now.

I am so happy with the way it turned out! It is exactly how I envisioned it. I got my shiplap (happy dance) and it looks great!

It took me awhile to pick out the paint color and I love what we chose. We used Sherwin Williams Fleur De Sel. It's a perfect light grey that makes the room feel larger than it is.

We are going to replace our outlets and light switches so that they are white. We also have a new light fixture coming, it was delayed by about 3 months, and that will be the final touch.

I will link all of our items at the bottom of this post.

I will do another post going through the whole process, more of a step by step. I will also be doing a shiplap tutorial. This was our first time installing shiplap so we are no experts, but I will share how we did ours for anyone who is interested.

We had so much fun designing and doing this project ourselves. I'm excited to start our next project!

I love incorporating greenery into my decor with faux potted plants and wreaths. It brings a natural feel into a space and I love it. If you want to bring a fresh and natural look into your room, keep reading.

Small faux potted plants are a great way to bring some "life" into a room. Although they aren't real plants, they give the same look. I like displaying them in baskets or on a bookshelf.

I just got this plant from Marshalls and I love the cement container it's in. I got two of them and put one in my kitchen cookbook basket.

These plants don't have to be small. I love these two galvanized metal tin plants. My mother-in-law got these for me and I love them. I have them as a centerpiece on my dining table at the moments, but they were on our back porch for awhile too.

Another way I love to incorporate greenery is with wreaths. I love magnolia wreaths and there are so many ways to display them. This is how I have one in our living room. It's hanging from an old framed screen. I painted the frame and made this wreath to hang on it.

I love decorating with greenery, whether it be faux potted plants or wreaths. There are so many different ways to incorporate this natural look into your home. I hope this gave you some inspiration to try it yourself!
