One Room Challenge Reveal: Gray and White Vintage Modern Bathroom

A beautiful vintage modern bathroom makeover full of contrast and fun patterned tile. 


It's week six of the One Room Challenge, which means it's REVEAL day!  I honestly didn't think I would make it to this day, but somehow I managed to turn our bright orange bathroom into the perfect vintage modern space.  It wasn't always easy and it came with a few frustrations, but the room is complete and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out.  You can follow along on the room progress here: Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, week 5

This bathroom is teeny tiny and hard to photograph, but I did my best and hope you'll enjoy the space as much as I do.  

Come on in, I'll show you around! Affiliate links have been used to link to products used in the space.

Gray and White Vintage Modern Bathroom Makeover
I'm having a love hate relationship with the wood mirror.  I had my heart set on a pharmacy mirror, but the one I ordered and planned on painting ORB was too large for the space.  I've been searching for the perfect round or rectangular ORB mirror ever since and still haven't found the one.  In the meantime, I found a nice wood round mirror that will do for now.

Have you tried Beekman 1802 products before? My mom gave me a bunch for Christmas and I love them. They smell and feel great, but they also make a great accessory for the bathroom too.

Can we talk about the gorgeous tile for a minute?

Replacing the generic ceramic tile with the gray and white patterned tile completely changed the look of the space and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out.  I'm so glad I ignored my husbands discontent regarding the tile and did it anyway.   It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission, right? #happywifehapylife

I never used this bathroom in the past (my husband always claimed it as his "office"), but I think we might be fighting over it now.   

A HUGE thank you to Schoolhouse Electric for providing product to help transform our bathroom.

  1. I was so anxious to see your completed room because I loved the door color and tile already. It's amazing! I'm so glad you used that tile. The rest of the styling is great, too. Now it is time to enjoy. Congrats! Susie from The Chelsea Project

  11. I love seeing your reveal! It was fun to watch along with you the changes that you made. I agree with you about the mirror, it looks out of place. What if you painted the wood a chalkboard slate color?

  20. Oh I love it! Starting with the signs on the door, such a cute detail! The tile, light, and wood is such a pretty combination. Great job, enjoy it!

  21. This room turned out fantastic! I understand that you can never have to much ORB, but i think the mirror also brightens and lightens the space.It also ties in with the lighter color of wood shelf, the baskets, and the light.

  22. What a great transformation! I actually really like the wood mirror. Great work!

  24. Those floors are amazing, has your husband come around to liking them yet? The wood mirror does go with the other wood accessories in the room, but I'm thinking a dark one might be better too - it's an amazing space though!

  29. I love your new bathroom, especially the tiles! I know your not to happy with the mirror but I love the beauty of the natural wood with the gray and black. The mirror is simply stunning and goes well with the wood shelf above the toilet. Great job!!

  30. It says your paint color is Sherwin Williams "On the Rocks". Just looked at this on my fan deck and it is quite dark with an LRV of 66. I assume you had this lightened significantly? Love the paint color in the photos, but it doesn't look like the paint chip.
