Okay, so we are starting to do some updates to our guest bath (which is overrun by four tiny little girls most of the time…. 😳), and I am in serious need of some inspiration!  We have two bathrooms in our home; the master and this guest bath, so I’d like it to be both functional and lovely for our guests…smears of toothpaste and four bajillion hair ties scattered on the floor notwithstanding.  Nothing really “wrong” with this space other than if you squint, you’ll see some pretty builder-basic elements that are starting to show their age in person and could use a refresh…budget-friendly, of course.

Because we aren’t staying in this house for all that much longer, I don’t want to go crazy on major updates, but I do want to give this 13 year old room some fresh touches that will help with resell later down the road.  It isn’t bad as it is, but it could use a little love…because, other than a coat of paint, it’s pretty much remained untouched since we moved in.  To help get my rear in gear, I rounded up some of the prettiest guest bathrooms that are kid-friendly in design and decor from Instagram, so maybe you can get inspired for your project, too!

I’m really REALLY digging this pale pink vanity base paired wit the classic subway tile and darker grout.  Classy with a touch of pink for my four girlies! The sink is the cutest thing ever, too.

I cannot EVEN with that cutie custom message worked into the tile!!  How fun is this?!  We probably can’t do something as involved as changing the flooring, but man is this ever adorable.  I love the big sink, subway tile again, and those three mirrors are adorable in here, too!

Hmmmmm, I think I’m feelin’ some pink, you guys!  My four little girls would just FLIP, and maybe I could keep it muted since we aren’t staying here forever?  Pale, dusty, blush pink with crisp white and wood tones?  This bath right here is what dreams are made of…..💞

How fun is this small space filled with whimsy?!  Lots of Instagram buddies suggested a touch of wallpaper for a quick update [HERE], and that might be one of the easier options with lots of impact.  Might just stick to one accent wall, but man is this ever eye-catching!!

Farmhouse feels going straight to my heart on this guest bath project here….LOVE the round mirror on the subway tiles, and those little pulls are speaking to me.  Warm woods mixed with classic modern farmhouse touches – always a good combo, I say!

There’s that pop of pink again, y’all….. 😉  How fun and funky is this design?!  Might not totally flow with the rest of the house, but it sure makes me itch to switch and try new things.  And what I wouldn’t give for a window smack dab in the middle of our guest/girls’ bath!

And finally, I loved this clean, crisp and classic bathroom with the double mirrors, soft texture on the walls and the combo of dark grey and white with a touch of green.  Such a fresh and bright feel in this beautiful room!!

Okay people, now it’s project time. 💪🏼  The creative juices are flowing (grossest analogy ever when you think about it…), I’ve been fully inspired by these talented Instagram peeps, and now onto the bathroom redo project!  Which bathroom style shown above is your jam?  Think I can get away with a soft pink in there even if we’re going to be selling in the not so distant future…?  Cause I’m kinda feelin’ it…. 💞
