Another incredible transformation @stelz. Lovely to see how you've tied this makeover in nicely with your guest toilet revamp too.

Thanks for sharing this inspiring project with us. Was there anything you found particularly challenging?

I love your styling and results, @stelz. I think the grey vanity is my favourite part. It looks stunning, complemented by the black fixtures.

Great work.

Thank you.

The goal is to keep the flow of the house consistent, and the colour pallet fits in every space of the house.

The only challenge was the ceiling- scrapping the old paint of the ceiling was not fun. I am glad I was working in small space.

@MitchellMc thank you so much. The grey colour choice is definitely a stand out .

Looks terrific! For the shower screen, did you dismantle it and paint somewhere else?

Hi @Bluetooth,

Let me mention @stelz, so they are alerted to your question.

Do you have a similar shower screen that could do with a makeover? We'd all be keen to follow along and provide assistance if needed.

Hi @MitchellMc , thanks for the assistance!

I have a bathroom that I'm re-vamping, albeit in stages. I've painted the vanity, and replaced the mirror with 2 more modern black ones. Next I plan to replace the chrome mixers with black, and there are a few other pieces in the bathroom that should be updated to match. The shower is glass, but the hardware is chrome, so maybe I could paint it.

@Bluetooth,

Check out Can you repaint bathroom taps? and @lifestylebymari's amazing Spray painted tapware. I believe this method could be applied to any hardware. The trick will be scratching that chrome with sandpaper so the paint has something to bind to.

If you give it a go, make sure you take some before and after photos. I'm sure our members will be thrilled to see your results.

Thank you.

Regarding the shower screen I did not dismantle. I use plastic sheet to screen around it before spraying. If I was going to this again, I will paint it as it would give a much smoother finish.
