Pre-bathroom makeover

Ok, well at the end of last pay period, we had $117 leftover so we decided to do a $117 bathroom makeover.  Believe me folks it can be done.  Just a little elbow grease and creativity.  Here's what we started out with:
Dark walls, green furniture,
rusty old tub, no storage for toiletries, towels, gigantic 400 lb. mirror,

feminine hygiene products (which seem to be filling up this place, I think the stuff actually multiplies),  tooth brushes, HOLY COW HAIR STUFF,  
and lovely puke pinkish, brownish, creamish, rustyish marble tile.
 First, Heather repainted the outside of the antique tub with KILZ, and it looks like a new tub.

Coming soon:  fresh paint, no green furniture, hand-made cabinets, new mirror, had to leave the tile, but we can work with it.  Stay tuned, we should be finished this week!
