EXTREME Small Bathroom Makeover under $500! 🛀 EASY DIY Renter Friendly Ideas!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 май 2024
- This bathroom was so dark, dirty and neglected so I CANNOT believe how fresh and styled it looks! My sister-in-law's bathroom desperately needed an upgrade after DECADES of renters and landlord specials, and I really wanted to preserve all of the really cool Craftsman-style architectural details, but I had to do it with $500 or less! So after putting in TONS of elbow grease to restore the original tile floor and original fixtures, patching up the walls to emphasize the beautiful detail work, and giving this space a fresh coat of paint with a little optical twist, my sister-in-law and her family are absolutely in love with their brand new bathroom! It's both calming and minimal, plus the additional organization and extra storage I added has absolutely decluttered their space to just make it functional again!
How do you think it turned out!? Let me know in the comments below!

💥Check out my planning process for this makeover here! ruclips.net/video/lb4hsoe9s_8/видео.html
I really enjoyed watching the planning and then seeing your progress. It was really interesting to see you change your mind about some elements once it was actually in the space.
Girl, rent and rent out are the total opposite.
❤❤❤❤❤
I think embracing the vintage elements in this makeover was so important! You have a real gift of vision when transforming a space, LK and this bathroom is no exception! Amazing! 😊
🥹Thank you so much!😍😊
As someone who loves watching DIY and handy videos, while being terrible at it myself, I love how creative people are and really enjoy the energy people have for things like this.
I don't think anyone can be terrible at it! It just takes some consistent practice.. but thank you so much for watching and glad you enjoyed!
I love the way you brought the yellow paint down onto the walls a bit. This detail, coupled with the new pendant light, brings so much character to the room. I also really appreciate your attention to detail and thoroughness!
Thank you so much!
Genius hack with the pole wrap on the sink!
Thanks!
You remind me of me and are probably more innovative than me. I loved this. My bathroom is nothing like this but I still got ideas of changes I can easily do, I’m 80 so am limited on some things. Thank you for the ideas. I think now I can complete my bathroom make over, I started a year ago and got stuck.
Omg that’s so cool!! Wow I hope I’m still coming up with designs when I’m 80 😍 That’s so wonderful and impressive!! 💪🏼💪🏼You’re awesome! Thank you so much for watching and the kind comment, I hope your bathroom turns out amazing!🥰😊
What a wonderful sister-in-law you are ❤ I’m so sorry you’re not feeling well. It looks beautiful 🛁 you always do such wonderful work.😊
Thank you so much!
I'm just curious if you were wearing a mask when you sanded down the walls? Or while you are painting such a small space? The reason I ask is only because of the numerous people who may not know how unhealthy it is to paint & DEFINITELY sand anything without wearing the proper protection. I personally found out the hard way.
I like the blue painted window and the shower curtain. ( the way you fixed it )
Thank you!! I think the shower curtain makes such a difference.. I hate shower curtain rods and rings for some reason haha it just cheapens the space imo!
Nicest sister-in-law ever! It's so cute and cheery now!
🥰🥰🥰Thank you!
Oh wow! This looks so fresh, clean and warm! The lamp over the cabinet feels like a mini sun, with the yellow ceiling, I love this choice so much! You're really inspiring LK, and I'm so glad I found your channel. So much content is geared towards landlords, and as a long-time renter myself, I also want to feel at home and you sure provide amazing content. Thank you, and congratulations on this project!
Thanks so much! 😊 This is so kind! I really appreciate it 🥹
What a fantastic job - bathroom looks totally amazing!!
Thanks so much! 😊
Was so excited for this video and it didn’t disappoint! Your creativity is amazing. From the shower curtain to the multiple uses of pole wrap and hook diys! Everything is pretty and purposeful. I love the yellow ceiling and how you brought it down to the top part of the wall, that looks super elevated and I’ll have to remember it! As always I also love that you worked with some of the existing features too. The little penny tile is beautiful but man whoever installed it probably regrets having to clean that amount of grout in such a high foot traffic area!
Ah thank you!! I’m so happy to hear that :):) I really appreciate your kind words!!
Aloha! Love the bamboo accents to the sink and nook floor. Question: is there a way to put some clear rubber tubing (like the kind used for aquarium pumps-don't they come in different diameters/lengths?) over/around the top part of the bamboo on the sink to keep it as dry as possible? As always, I look forward to your content! You definitely inspire creativity!😄
Hii! Thank you!! You know, I deleted the footage but I tried this with a bendable piece of plastic I found at home depot but it wasn’t bendy enough and it made the pole wrap bow out. aquarium tubing is a great idea! maybe I can find one that’s aesthetically pleasing hahaha 🥰🥰
You have definitely elevated the space. I’m sure they were thrilled and will enjoy it for a long time. And the landlord should be grateful, too!
I hope so! thank you!
Yay!!! Found a new interior design channel!!!!
Yay! Hi and welcome! 👋
What a beautiful makeover. You are such a good sister-in-law.😊
GIRL, you’re amazingly talented!
Great work within restrictive parameters! You’re so good at coming up with unusual solutions when things don’t initially work out. I just kept thinking how sick you were as you finished the process, yet you persevered!
Thank you so much!😍I really was so sick hahah 😷
Simply adorable 🥰 love the colors and how the shower curtain turned out. Bringing down the yellow really gave a richness to it.😊
Fabulous transformation 🩷 My favorite thing is the yellow paint on the ceiling. The color is so cheery and complimentary to the warm white walls. And extending the yellow onto the wall is reminiscent of an art deco inspired cove detail. 👍 First time watching your channel, I’m subscribed and I’m following you on Amazon. Thanks for the product links. Now on to binge watching your past projects. Sending ❤ love from Indiana.
Yay! Hi and welcome! 👋 Thank you so much for the kind words!
I think this was a great refresh for that bathroom! Just goes to show you don't have to spend a ton of money to transform a space. Some deep cleaning, a fresh coat of paint, and a few inexpensive accessories can make a big difference. Nice job.
Beautiful job! My favorite is the sink wrap, storage cabinet room❤
Use Zep grout cleaner. It’s fabulous. Use the tip of the special opening on just the grout and in less than 5 minutes all you have to is wipe with a cloth. EASY!❤❤❤
Your hair looks so healthy and shiny!
Omg thank you!! :D
Well done.... The light did it for me.... spectacular!
Right?! I was so happy with how it turned out as I was a bit nervous beforehand haha. Thank you!!
Very impressed! I just happened to stumble on this video, scrolling, looking for something to watch. I love bathroom and laundry room make overs on a budget. This video did not disappoint! I love your ideas and all your budget friendly tips. Score on that Market Place Cabinet, very nice. I've always loved the quirkiness of Craftsman's with unusual built ins, like the cabinet and alcove. The tip you gave about using cheap paint vs better quality and how much time it can save is so true. My only concern is the wood slats around the sink; with water being splashed the wood will absorb the moisture. Maybe you did this and didn't mention it, but a coat of poly to protect it from wetness. The touch of yellow and blue, pretty. Nicely done!
Awesome, thank you!! Hi and welcome! 👋 I love Craftsman homes too -- they're so gorgeous. And the wood around the sink won't come in contact with too much water (I think) however there is a coating on the pole wrap it feels a tad waxy so I think it will repel water.. but I was thinking of adding a rubber-type trim on top and bottom however we shall see as its in three pieces...
Great job, I love the result! I never would have thought to do the ceiling the way you did, and I love the illusion of a molding effect.
Thanks so much! 😊
Just a tip for the future.. the barkeepers friend powder is the way to go!! It’s MAGIC!!
Awesome job!!
I keep hearing that thank you!
Looks like u mastered the art of foot mopping! 😊 I am right there with you.
Hahaha : )
I love how it turned out. Such creative solutions too! Thanks for sharing your tips on cleaning chrome light fixtures, definitely will be trying that in my bathroom
Awesome!! Thank you!!😊
Your solutions for covering the sink and it's plumbing was really interesting and creative, well done with that! :)
Thanks!!😍😊
You continue to outdo yourself LK; the bathroom is beautiful and the transformation that you achieved on your budget is amazing! Kudos to your partner also for providing an extra set of hands when needed.
Thank you so much!
Really nice,.. I love it, had my doubts there first for a minute with the blue and the orange paint; but you came through like a charm! Truly a pro-budget creator. That little powder room/bath is a fun treasure for kids as well as a great place for parents to get away for r&r.
Only thing I would add is a couple plants,just a COUPLE, you selected some super cute items ALL my favorites
This is the first time seeing your channel pop up. I liked and subscribed. I love this makeover! You are very talented! It is beautiful! Fantastic job and so inexpensively achieved. I really love the tile floor and I'm glad you kept it. The application around the sink and on the floor in the alcove area is high-end looking! I love it! The chrome rail around the sink ending up being around the outside of the wood slats makes it look so good! I really liked how you carried the yellow down onto the wall also. Everything looks so pretty. Well done! I am looking forward to checking out your past videos and watching your future ones as well. Thanks for sharing! Have a beautiful blessed day! 🙏
Yay hi and welcome!👋Thank you so much! I am so happy I was able to stay within budget, it was a serious challenge! And I'm so happy too about the random accident that worked out with the vanity bar as a towel holder! Have a wonderful weekend😍☺😊
Lots of incredibly thoughtful and innovative details!!!
Thank you!!
Very nice result. I was most impressed with the vanity update and the cleaned up light fixtures. The room has a very pleasant vibe. I agree that even as a renter you should elevate the space you will live in even if only temporarily.
Thank you so much! I agree! You never know how long you'll live somewhere and why not do the most to live in a space that makes you feel calm or energized or just creatively inspired and grateful 😊
Wow I thought that you couldn't really do much with a small rental makeover but boy was I wrong; your fantastic!❤❤🎉🎉
Haha thank you!! 😊
Love the yellow ceilings and how you brought it down on the walls. Great design! I’m going to get one of those IKEA lights you used it really made that area pop too. Great eye!!
Thank you so much! It’s a great versatile light 🥰
I’ve been looking forward to this! Just hit play!
Yay let me know what you think!!🥰
Absolutely stunning!! All your hard work and inventive design of the bathroom is amazing! Great job!!❤️
Thanks!!😍😊
Fantastic! You did a wonderful job!
You are a sweetheart! 💕
Thank you!😊
Ya done good! Hard work and creativity helped the budget stretch!
Thank you!
Great job. I really like the way you hid the pedalstal sink. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you and thank for watching!
Ok soooo good!! You’re definitely in law of the year 🤣 loved to see how you got creative to work around things, I’m inspired!
Hahah right??!! Thank you so much!!🥰
Impressive makeover! I’d be thrilled if that were my bathroom.
Me too! hahaha Thanks!
I don’t love your color choices, but that’s a personal thing. You did a really GREAT job on this economic makeover!!! Bravo!
So much creativity and innovation! ❤
Thank you! 😊
Yup! Good job! Glad you're feeling better.
Love this bathroom is so pretty. ,I hope you are feeling better I know I can’t do anything if I don’t feel well. I love your colors.
You’re such a sweet sister in law to do this for them. My daughter would do this too, she loves helping. It’s just beautiful ♥️♥️♥️👍👍
Thank you so much for this sweet comment!😍
YOU'RE THE BEST SISTER N LAW EVER!!!!! AN ARTISEE N A TROOPER. BEAUTIFUL WORK AMAZING.
Aw thank you so much!!😍
Great job . Really like the yellow ceiling, ikea light cleaned floor and wood details. loved all except the color/texture
of the bath mat…and would have Velcroed the rim around sink so it was firmly attached. However, you rocked it! She’s lucky to have you!
Thanks so much!
Pink REALLY works takes stains out easy
Beautiful transformation
Thank you! 🤗
Lots of cute ideas here! May I make one suggestion? Those appear to be plaster walls, which means that any patched nail holes almost never look that good because the patch is obvious. Although nails may be less expensive for hanging pictures at the start, Command Hooks are super strong, fairly inexpensive, and leave no trace behind when it is time to change out the wall decor.
Amazing job! That sink skirt is everything!
Haha 2min into the video I love everything about this! Most makeover videos strip out the whole thing or just by soap as decoration. I adore how you thought about the whole thing and saw the pretty spots of the bathroom and elevated the whole room by highlighting them! Thanks for your perspective hope to take something into my bathroom :)
This is so sweet thank you!! 🥰
Girl, you are a marvel!
Aw thanks!!😍😊
I LOVE the changes you made! High 5!!
Awesome thanks!!😍😊
I love that yellow ceiling! Initially when you said you are going to paint it yellow, I was doubtful that it will turn out good. But the end result is amazing! I love that you brought the yellow color a little down to the walls and it really gives it an elegant touch. What a nice transformation of the space.
Haha thank you so much! Glad we both ended up liking it.. I struggled with picking the right colors but they really look great in person.. I feel like the video doesn't do it justice : )
Great job looks lovely and fresh ,I love your idea for the vanity it turned out really good well done 👏👍😉💛
Thanks so much! 😊
This was SO good. So many inexpensive and creative ideas!
Thanks!!😍😊
Lovely. Lots of good tips too. You really are very ingenious and a thoughtful person. 😊
Wow, thank you! So kind of you 🥰
What a lovely job you did. Its great that the blue tiles look refreshed and add the vintage style to the room. The mix of old and new with the ceiling is great. Glad your feeling better, what a massive effort given how sick you looked.
Thanks so much! 😊I’m so glad to be done with it and my sickness haha
Very nice. It was nice of you to do this for them. 😊
Nice video❤ I usually do a cut in paint with a regular paint brush, around windows and corners, ceilings and floors. Then use a roller. It usually goes quickly.
Beautiful job❤
Great ideas! Wonderful result! Well done!
Thanks so much! 😊
Everything looks beautiful. I would love to come home and find my tired dingy bathroom transformed into a claming, refreshed and decorated space I want to be in.
I love the cupboard and nook you created, the floor covering, the light and paint.
The pictures and decor. The shiwer curtain, little stool with goodies, moving the toilet roll holder. Polishing up the old light fitting. Scrubbing the floor.
The green lamp.
The plants and decor with crystals. The paint colours are all lovely.
You took a grey looking bathroom and brightened it and elevated it on a tight budget.
I'm so glad your sister in-law and family loved it.
I hope you feel better, rest, and take good care of yourself. That small bathroom took alit of physical work.
Well done on an excellent transformation. Yay🎉🎉
Thank you so much!! I appreciate all of the kind words 😊😍
great job also painter secret, paint the ceiling first then the wall so nothing drips on fresh painted walls
You are amazing! I love the color choices and especially the ceiling.
Thank you so much!
Thank you including the handy tips. Here is the thing I worried about. I loved the thing around the sink, but I hav😅ion. I really like how you took the leftover and put it in that little “room“. And that difference between the first blue which was kind of harsh to the second blue was amazing. I relaxed when you used the second blue. Thank you again.
Baking soda + detergent paste help much for cleaning metal rusty parts & makes it shiny .. also the floor .. = you can leave them for 10 minutes then try scrubbing. . Also baking soda with viniger & lenom for further cleaning ..
Try to use baking soda as 1st step in everything you clean & you may not need anything further. .
You made a great loving work.. please receive all our love & respect.. ❤
Looks amazing as usual! I think the pole wrap will probably not be a good long term solution around the sink but for now, it's perfect!
This is adorable. Great job. I especially love the ceiling and I had been thinking about doing that with a white ceiling but I like the colour pop instead.
Thanks so much!
Moving into an old house this week. You gave me some great ideas! Thanks 🙏
Oooh exciting! Sounds fun! Good luck 🥰❤️

You did a fabulous job on this bathroom. You took a small budget and made a huge difference to this room. I love the pops of colour and the creamy walls. I wasn’t sure how that would work with the cool tone of the floors but it really does work. I am going to use that colour in my own bathroom.
Yes that's awesome!! Thank you so much and good luck with your bathroom! 😍😊
Really creative & inspirational. You're so talented. 😊
Ah thank you so much!
Great Job. Greetings from Germany
