Weird Is So Much Better Than Boring

Heather was tired of her bathroom, which had never been finished since her remodel several years ago.

Weird Is So Much Better Than Boring

Though the sink and toilet were pretty, the entire room lacked any decorative flair.

Weird Is So Much Better Than Boring

She decided on a beachy theme and used wood, rope, paint, and stain to make her vision come alive.

She chose two different sized cedar fence slats and stained them with astain in the color “Island Water.”

Using white primer first, she applied the stain with asponge brush, waited a few minutes, then wiped it off with oil cloth.

She then finished by running over the slats with sandpaper.

The result is a beautiful, faux-distressed dock on the back of the toilet.

After adding a coat of deep blue paint to the wall, she added wainscoting wallpaper to the bottom portion of the walls.

She then attached a1.5″ trim between the paint and the wallpaper.

Then using a hot-glue gun, she fastened rope along the panel, further strengthening the dock illusion.

She also outlined the walls in the atmospheric rope and used it on the new mirror.
