Whenever I see pictures of celebrities in magazines doing things like buying deodorant at Walgreens or walking out of the grocery store with a big box of Cheerios, I can’t help but think “Wow! They really ARE just like us!”
Of course I don’t think that. I think “Wow. I wonder how much they got paid to ‘candidly’ carry that product with the label ‘randomly’ showing. Probably a butt-load.” I’m no fool.
But deep down, celebrities really are just like us. They need deodorant too. This is why (stay with me here) you should never look at some fabulous designer-decorated space and think, “Gosh dang. I could never do that.” FALSE!
Most of the time, those designers starting from the basics too, just like anybody else. Take this bathroom. Vanity. Toilet. Window. Nothing special here.
But look at what’s possible! You can have a celebrity-worthy bathroom too! And why shouldn’t you? You’re pretty hot stuff.

April 13, 2015 at 3:43 PMLet me just say this, the bathroom is nice………………BUT that “Basics” bathroom is not basic. The floor is upgraded the shutters are upgraded and that vanity is not builders stock either. So the plain bathroom is already starting off much nicer that a lot of people’s bathrooms. Second, because this bathroom is in such great shape to begin with, there is no need for wall construction, or plumbing horrors to handle.
But YES anyone can transform a bathroom ascetically.

April 14, 2015 at 4:48 AMI agree with Lesley – unless you’re lucky enough to live in a new construction home, that “Basics” bathroom would be many people’s costly upgrade.
Still, rocking the wallpaper, though.
