Nothing helps me get my house in shape faster than when guests are headed over! We are going to be traveling a lot in June and the thought of my house sitters seeing my majorly blah bathroom was such a bummer! Something had to be done, and fast.
Happily, Target Style invited me to shop their new spring collection from Threshold and Nate Berkus. Hello, dream job! They believe (and so do I!) that with just five more minutes of attention and the addition of just a few cool, what I call top-layer pieces, even the most boring space can become a showpiece room that you’ll be so excited to share with your guests!
Remember what my bathroom looked like when we moved in? Baby blue walls, weird vanity, dark baskets that shed everywhere, and absolutely nowhere to hang towels!
I painted the walls Benjamin Moore’s Classic Gray (one of my very favorite colors!) and changed out the baskets, which helped for sure. But I knew the room could look a million times better and be much more functional with a top layer of cool accessories.
I planted a really hardy succulent in this great Nate Berkus bowl for on top of the shelving. Every room needs a little bit of greenery – even a bathroom! That oversized basket that we’re using as a laundry hamper is new from Nate Berkus, too.
One of my very favorite additions to the bathroom was hanging these Threshold mirrors on top of my outdated sheet glass mirror. It only took a minute to put these up with a few large-sized picture hanging strips. I love the dimension they add!
But the pink stool! She’s the hero of my additions! I can’t tell you how much joy that little stool brings me. I tucked her in to that little vanity spot and it was like the whole room came alive, just like that! And suddenly I’ve gone from embarrassed to excited to show this room to our house guests! It’s so much better, right?

When my children see me vacuuming, their first question is always, "Who's coming over?" Your bathroom is certainly ready for company. Beautiful! Best wishes.
we try to entertain weekly just so the house stays presentable! I love the Turkish towels! I'm so bummed though – I'm in Toronto and Target opened here in Canada but went out of business! So sad! So many amazing things in your post. It'll be worth a drive to the U.S. soon!
I love the black and white fringe towels and the pencil holders as makeup supply holders is really smart. Unfortunately our bathroom does not allow room for a vanity set up, so I will file this away until we get to remodel!
Super impressed. What an amazing transformation! I love all the added touches but the paper lantern is so simple yet makes HUGE difference. Loving those bath mats too. Amazing.
I love that pink and gold stool! I wanted to buy it so badly the other day, but somehow retrained myself since I have no where to put it… :(
ps Tobacco Vanille is my favorite perfume!
So cute! Love your style.
The pink stool! If only my husband wouldn't feel his masculinity threatened. Everything is beautiful though.
Beautiful bathroom! I would love t know where you got the Turkish/Moroccan hand towels near the sink? Lovely indeed.
Hi Kelly, shamelessly advertising here, but we have some beautiful hand-woven towels if you want to take a look: http://www.anatoli.co
Your bathroom looks amazing – love the towels and rugs!! Lucky guests coming to your house…
Lovely! I've never seen the decorative mirror on top of a flat mirror before, that's such a cute idea. It adds a lot of personality to the space. Time for me to go shopping!
This sponsored post totally worked on me! I was inspired to buy the black and white fringe hand towels, the black marble soap dispenser, and the oil can dispenser for hand lotion. It's crazy how these 4 things plus a couple photos, little cup of q-tips, little cup of flowers totally transformed a boring vanity. Thanks, Jenny!
Love that the towels look good on the reverse side even if that wasn't intended!…I think I prefer that mostly black side for my room.
Pretty sure I'm going to go back and get the shaving mirror.
