Updated Bathroom

When we moved in I knew the bathroom would need attention sooner than later. Five years in, we finally got to it. It just needed a new floor that was waterproof instead of the original 1920's wooden subfloor. The vanity was literally crumbling and curling at the base, so I figured we would replace that when it was removed to redo the floor. Last year we put in a new set of mirrors/cabinets because our family of five quickly outgrew the single medicine cabinet.  
(Unfortunately, a before picture was forgotten.) our fantastic landlord is very handy, and he had tile left from redoing the kitchen floor 14 years ago, so we used that. I love that both rooms match.  
The vanity has two full drawers so the plumbing had to be adjusted. It's a bit tricky to put in Swedish plumbing in America.  
Now is the fun part of putting a few cute things on the shelves. I'm sticking with the gray/white/green color scheme since we have all the towels already. I still haven't found anything I like otherwise. I like the idea of a strip of press-on backsplash behind the sink.
