Soo many smart solutions to weird random issues in your bathroom! It makes it so relatable. Awesome, Rachel!

[bobinette]

Not a fan of the handles being in the middle of the over the toilet cabinet, but everything else is 💯

[victoriachristian]

Definitely think you should’ve painted the over the toilet cabinet, the same green as your sink stand…… love the divider

[vickinoeske]

Such a big do-over for such a little space. The bathroom now has so much style and personality. Brava Rachel.❤

[zoeflatman]

Love the result! A quick tip is to fill your bathtub with water when you caulk or when you put weight in it while bathing or showering it can stretch the caulk and lead to cracking. I have caulked a few tubs in my time!

[HannahSwinson]

The tile job in the shower is truly the definition of "landlord special" looks great for what you were working with! I would definitely check for water damage around the shower fixture though. Had similar tile in my house growing up and they started falling out like that because everything behind it was water damaged and rotting

[demichirua]

The divider really is the key item that gives the bathroom a whole new vibe!! Love the style❤

[Sophie.Punter]

Pro-tip - when sealing corners with silicone sealant (NOT caulk, which is not water resistant like silicone sealant is), after adding your bead along the edge, spray it with soapy water before spreading with your finger or tool. This avoids it sticking to everything and gives a nice smooth finish :)

Love it! Biggest transformation: the caulk. Dang what a difference some fresh caulk makes! The wall ledge was a genius idea- it is small but adds so much! The divider is pretty. I have a tankless water heater in my laundry room that is an eye sore…and I’ve wanted to build a faux cabinet around it for a while, but maybe a divider like this would suffice…great job!

[Jess_M]

Love the transformation! Not sure if someone already mentioned it, but it's a good idea to fill the bath full of water when you do the silicone, to avoid it stretching/detaching when you eventually have a bath. Learned this from a bathroom fitter.

[emmabingham]

I’d also paint the inside of the over-the-toilet cabinet with the green. You’ll see it reflected in the mirror and it would tie in so nice. Love the divider!

[felixrunquist]

I recognize Kelsey's green bathtub color as the new cabinet color! Also a pro tip: Get a grout cleaner and a toothbrush to remove the black stains from the grout in the shower :)

[lorimoss]

Much improved. Paint the open part of the over the toilet cabinet the same green as the vanity.

[NCHCLW]

The divider and mini floating shelf are vital....so good for that space! The weird black handles on the hanging cabinet are, well, weird...that one is a no from me.

[fantasyk]

I love it, especially the green cabinet under the sink ✨ so much I think you should've painted the other the same too 😂

[momo-ctve]

loved this makeover! These are diys that even people with no experience or expensive tools can do and I loved the outcome, especially the room dewider is something that I wouldnt have thought of in a small bathroom, but it looks so good!

[definitelyslytherin]

I definitely needed a video like this. I’m getting so much inspiration to design my space

[alisiaortiz]

You literally just elevated this tiny old bathroom by fold. Im in awe. Where was this video when I lived in my old apartment?!

[xiaonihao]

It looks amazing! But if you want to change the caulking around the tiles there is a special pen for it that comes in white, black and grey(as far as I know). And that could help with cohesiveness of the different tile colors!

[mdwrm]

this is rachael's best video yet. i really like how the changes make perfect sense for the space and add a lot of visual value/intrigue without looking cheap or cutting corners.
