EXTREME Small Bathroom Makeover under $500! 🛀 EASY DIY Renter Friendly Ideas!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 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! th-cam.com/video/lb4hsoe9s_8/w-d-xo.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.
❤❤❤❤❤

Problems , I could never clean my bathroom tolit , floors , etc, nor any bathroom without gloves it would be very much impossible for me to do so , I just could never ever do it , even with mopping I gotta have on gloves at all times
PLEASE , CALL ME CRAZY IF YOU LIKE BUT , IT'S JUST ME AND THE WAY I FEEL ABOUT TOUCHING ANYTHING NASTY 😌 🤧 ☺️ 😔
Inside the little nock I would have used it for a mirror 🪞 and vanity small chair 💺 would have made it even more beautiful and it would have made the bathroom look much larger from the larger reflection of the mirror 🪞
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!
Nicest sister-in-law ever! It's so cute and cheery now!
🥰🥰🥰Thank you!
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 use Chrome Cleaner for (car tires) it works wonders for all my in home chrome and it leaves a great shine the name is (Chrome & and metal by turtle wax) and for
for my silver I use (wright's) silver polish , it works amazingly well
Just trying to be helpful you might like "try it" let me know if you like it
I'm a newbie to your channel 06/18/24❤
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!
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!!
Genius hack with the pole wrap on the sink!
Thanks!
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 🥹
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!
What a fantastic job - bathroom looks totally amazing!!
Thanks so much! 😊
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 🥰🥰
I'm absouletly at a loss for words. This renovation is genius in so many levels!! The sink cover, the shower curtain hack, the floor with the leftover slats! This is by far my favorite budget renovation video to date. Congratulations and thank you for sharing it with us!
Yay!!! Found a new interior design channel!!!!
Yay! Hi and welcome! 👋
You are amazing & have inspired me to do some fresh, new DIYs at age 65. Did a lot of these when I was younger and need to again. DIYs feed my creative soul. Thank you!♥️
That's amazing!! So excited for you! : )
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 😷
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!🥰😊
the bathroom looks fantastic! I especially like the ceiling, the pop of color brings it all together. Good job!
thank you!! :)
Loved the way you made bathroom beautiful with a limited budget
Thank you so much 😊
You did a job of a pro. It’s clean and warm. Best sister n law ever ❤❤❤❤
I love how you transformed the sink with pole wrap!!
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!
Great job. I really like the way you hid the pedalstal sink. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you and thank for watching!
Looks amazing, love the color combinations. The tip to use tin foil and bar keepers very useful. Thank you for allowing us to follow along.
Absolutely! Thank you!
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!!😊
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!
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!! 😊
Looks like u mastered the art of foot mopping! 😊 I am right there with you.
Hahaha : )
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
Thanks so much! And I did put a zz plant in her window but the bathroom is so dark not much would survive in there sadly
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...
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!❤❤❤
What you came up with for the sink make over is amazing! Love it all.
Great job! It really looks beautiful. I love your comment about leaving them room to add their own personal touches.😊
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 😊
What a great job! I really enjoyed watching and since I also rent I learned some good ideas for my own space.
GIRL, you’re amazingly talented!
Great job. My favourite is the sink, just so nice and where you added it to the floor. Wonderful!!
I’ve been looking forward to this! Just hit play!
Yay let me know what you think!!🥰
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!😍
Beautiful work! Thank you for sharing your ideas and talents. You explained everything so well and you encourage the rest of us to do these kind of things ourselves. Thank you so much!
Ya done good! Hard work and creativity helped the budget stretch!
Thank 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
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😍☺😊
I love how you pulled that all together. I need you at my house. 😅
Bless you for helping your friend & all your hard work.
You did great transforming this bathroom.
Fantastic! You did a wonderful job!
You are a sweetheart! 💕
Thank you!😊
This was SO good. So many inexpensive and creative ideas!
Thanks!!😍😊
I LOVE the changes you made! High 5!!
Awesome thanks!!😍😊
Really great job, very impressive, I bet they loved it for a long time. I loved all of your ideas, it makes me want to try a few things myself in my bathroom. Gr😂eat attitude even working while sick. You also seem like a kind loving sister in-law. With a whole lot of energy, I'm sure they appreciate all of the time and thought and work involved. You did show them the video. Glad you kept the tile, it came out beautiful.
Awww thank you!! Yes they absolutely loved the improvement! :)
Great job! You're a wonderful sister-in-law ❤️ XOXO Rosie
Thank you so much!😍
So fun to watch. You are so creative, I love what you did with everything!
Thank you so much!
Pink REALLY works takes stains out easy
You are amazing! I love the color choices and especially the ceiling.
Thank you 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 😊😍
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 : )
Your are an awesome sister- in- law! Thank you for sharing this face-lift for the bathroom. I think you probably got sick trying out all those different cleaning products for the floor. Make sure you open windows to vent.
Simply adorable 🥰 love the colors and how the shower curtain turned out. Bringing down the yellow really gave a richness to it.😊
Thanks so much! 😊
For the tile I would recommend a specific product for tile and grout and use a steel toothbrush on the grout. Additionally, they make a grout pen that is designed to make grout white (not sure if that was the goal here). Literally just getting on your hands and knees and using your upper body weight/muscles on each individual tile would be the way to go instead of wasting a ton of product that only did a small improvement.
Overall, I really loved the result of the bathroom and I’m sure your SIL did, too. Great colors!
Lovely. Lots of good tips too. You really are very ingenious and a thoughtful person. 😊
Wow, thank you! So kind of you 🥰
So much creativity and innovation! ❤
Thank you! 😊
YOU'RE THE BEST SISTER N LAW EVER!!!!! AN ARTISEE N A TROOPER. BEAUTIFUL WORK AMAZING.
Aw thank you so much!!😍
I don’t love your color choices, but that’s a personal thing. You did a really GREAT job on this economic makeover!!! Bravo!
that part you gave a statement in blue that's me now i never knew makeovers can be this overwhelming especially when one is doing it themselves,you've done a great job hope to complete mine soon
Thank you so much!! They really are quite the undertaking but its so rewarding to complete!
What a beautiful makeover. You are such a good sister-in-law.😊
How beautiful and creative makeover! 😊 you are so talented.
Aw thank you!!😍😊
My goodness you’re absolutely amazing. I’m grateful to have watched this video. I subscribed ❤
omg thank you! welcome👋🏼😊
I'm so glad to have found your channel. I love your style and feel like your DIYs are achievable for those of us who are still developing our skills. Beautiful job on this space!
That’s so awesome thanks so much! I’m so glad I can give some inspo! I really think it’s so rewarding to update your personal spaces 😊
Nice to see you back Tom!
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!
Love the sink wrap so much
Oh. My. God. This transformation is incredible, truly a miracle what you accomplished in this space! 🎉🎉🎉I love all the thoughtful details, especially the little alcove and the framed prints. Congratulations on a hugely successful project!
Thank you so much!! I appreciate your kind words! 😍
What a labor of love. I love Soft Scrub. It deep cleans so well. Love how it turned out. I'm sure she loved it. You did an terrific job. Absolutely love everything. ❤️
Thank you so much!
You are my Renter Friendly Hero!!!!!!! So sorry you were sick, but the way you persevered is amazing and inspiring! WTG!!! Such a great transformation!
Omg thank you so much!!🥰😂I am so glad its done and that they love it!! Appreciate this really lovely comment :)
I’m 11 minutes in and just need to say how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE Roman Column! Ok…back to the video!
Yes!! 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.
When cleaning floors etc that need a brightening. Make a paste with water and Ajax or comet and leave it on for 30+ minutes. GAME CHANGER!
Amazing job. What a blessing.
Great work!!!
WOW just WOW!
Gotta thumbs up. Congratulations.
Much appreciated, thank you!!
INCREDIBLE!
Gorgeous!!!
Love it...yellow is my favorite color.
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!!
Impressive! Great problem-solving and such a lovely result!
Many thanks! : )
I just stumbled upon your video.
I absolutely love the finished look!! 😍
yay hi! 😊👋🏼 thank you!!
Yup! Good job! Glad you're feeling better.
I'm about to makeover my half bath in my 1850's house. I bought most of the item's on Temu. I will be doing a haul video of everything I got and then will post the barhroom after it's done on my channel. I love decorating
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! 😍😊
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! 😊
You’re so talented! I appreciate your tutoring & multiple ideas!
Thank you!
You are so welcome! Thanks!
Beautiful job! My favorite is the sink wrap, storage cabinet room❤
Love this! Thanks for the inspo!
Super wonderful job!!
WOW! This is fabulous
Thank you!!
Amazing job! That sink skirt is everything!
In the first video I wasn’t so sure on the paint colours you were picking but this proves their all came together perfectly ❤
Oh thank you! I love when that happens haha 😂
You made sure a difference. Wonderful!!!❤❤❤
Thank you!🥹😊
