Giveaway: Redo & Renew your bath with help from Home Depot

In the last year, my kitchen has undergone major renovation – new appliances, new counter tops, new cabinets, a new paint job (and someday soon, new flooring). It looks incredible and I can’t believe the difference. And I thought it was just fine before! So now I am looking at the rest of my house in a more critical light, and wondering what other “just fine” parts of the house could become “incredible.”

My husband and I aren’t what you might call handy, but since the home improvement bug has bitten us, we are trying to get that way – because really, DIY projects are so much more affordable than paying someone to do the work. For example, the kitchen paint job I mentioned above? We were really hesitant to try to do something even that simple on our own. However, once we got an estimate of $500, we were relieved of our hesitation! Forty dollars in paint and about eight hours of elbow grease (and the help of a very good friend) later, the job was done. So, we’ve decided the only way to become more handy is to jump in and try to figure it out. And watch YouTube videos (which is what I need to do so we can do the new kitchen flooring).

In any case, one room of the house that I’ve been meaning to do something about for a long time (since we moved in four years ago) is the bathroom. The previous owners were somewhat more outdoorsy than we are, and the bathroom contains stenciled moose and pine trees, and is topped off with a pinecone border. There are two other things that drive me nuts about our bathroom, too – the only storage is under the sink, so all our toiletries/vitamins/medicines/curling irons/etc. sit on the counter collecting dust and looking cluttered (which drives me crazy), and the hand-held shower head is a piece of junk and sprays one hard stream of water, so the kids freak out when I wash their hair. Overall, it’s just not really my style, but somehow we’ve just never gotten around to doing anything about it.

However, now I have no excuse not to get on it, though, because between now and February 23, Home Depot is having a “Renew Your Bath” event in an effort to inspire people to redo their bathrooms. The Home Depot offers in-store experts and online tools to provide inspiration, help you decide on what to buy for your new bathroom look and show you how to get it done right. Of course, tons of bathroom stuff is on sale!

Our family took at trip to Home Depot to check out the event over the weekend. I was surprised at what all they had (and what all was on sale!). I immediately wanted to replace our entire sink/cabinet/counter thing, but I suppose that will have to wait for another day. Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be a major renovation to make a major difference – renewing a bath can mean adding new lighting, installing a new floor, changing out the toilet, replacing the showerhead or adding a new paint color. Things you can learn on YouTube! We did got a few things that I think will really refresh our house.

  2. We would love to get a new vanity for our bathroom….we need someplace to store everything so this would be great!

  6. Would like one of those fancy shower heads that have many different settings. Also, need to update my cabinet.

  8. I would definitely buy ceramic tile! My husband ripped out our master bathroom shower back in October. We still need to choose tile so it can be finished!

  10. LOL. Our master bathroom is just so bad that I wish I could post a picture. I think I would start with the floor. Currently we have the old inch by inch tile…and it’s cracked and uneven. lol. Yes. It’s THAT bad.

  16. I’d like to redo our upstairs hall bath. There was an overflow situation last year that damaged the trim and the flooring. It would be great to get new ceramic tile.

  23. Our bathroom is such a small space without any storage. I would get some shelving units and some cabinets to go next to our sink. Either that or reorganize underneath the sink to accomodate more.

  28. We are in the (slow) process of completely redoing our bathroom. It was pretty ugly. This would probably go towards a new faucet and paint. 🙂
