I. COUNTER TOPS !
Have an empty sink top and want to jazz it up? here are a few ideas for an empty counter
1. Make a sand box for your tissues!
Who doesn't need tissues to touch up on their make-up or clean a running nose? =) The wooden tissue box and acrylic paint(light blue and white) can be purchased at Michael's craft store. The seashells and rope can be purchased at the dollar tree. Hurry and buy it now before they run low on their summer decorations!
Seashells : $1.00
Tissue Box: $4.47
Acrylic Paint: $1.00 (x2) aqua and light (color of your choice)
Jute Rope: $1.00
Grand total: $7.00
2. Treasure Chest
Add a treasure chest to your counter, paint the box the color you desire and decorate the outside with seashells. You can put jewelry (not expensive ones) in it.
Seashells : $1.00
Treasure box:
Acrylic Paint: $1.00 each (x2) aqua and light (color of your choice)
Grand total: $ 5.25
2. Beachy Glass bottles
The different size of bottles can be found at the Dollar Tree, Marshall's and or Goodwill.
(Tips:You can add sand or marbles in the bottles to have the candles leveled higher. Mix up the bottles, get different styles and only beach colors)
Glass bottles: (style 1, style 2 and style 3) $3.00
Sand: FREE from the beach or $1.00
Marbles: $1.00
Seashells: $1.00
Jute Rope: $1.00
Raffia: $1.00
Grand Total: ~$7.00-$8.00
3. Mason Jars
Want to add more dimension to your restroom? Cover mason jars with nets and use the jute ropes to line the top part of the jar. Below is a pic of my restroom,
Mason Jars: dollar tree $1.00 or Michaels (coupons)
(Tips: I highly recommend looking for coupons before making a trip to Michael's, you'll save a lot!)
Fish net: $3.99
Jute Rope: $1.00
Grand Total: ~$8.00
The two pictures featured below was taken from my restroom. I had purchase the jars at Marshall's before I saw the diy mason jars. I purchased it for ~$8.99- 10.00 each, but you can make it for less than $10.00 for 3 jars!
Small Rocks: $1.00
Big Rock: FREE, Found it outside
Both jars: $8.99- $10.00 each
Fish net: $3.99
My Grand Total: $24.00 (you can save ~$16.00 and spend it on other crafts!!)
You can easily had a tray with towels on your counter top for your guest. The towels can be found at Walmart or Target, I got mine from Target because it was on sale. The seashell tray I found at Ross, but look at your local thrift store, Ross, Marshall's before spending your money at other places such as Target (it's pretty pricey). If you can't find a seashell tray, find a beach color tray
Towels: 8 pieces for $4.00 (not the greatest material but it'll be great to quickly dry your hands and for display
Tray: Buy the metal tray at the dollar tree. $1.00 (If you have metal accents around the restroom, I would say leave the tray as is, if not you can purchase spray paint)
Spray paint: any color you desire (blue/mine) $3.69 $1.85 (I suggest getting the smaller spray paint because this is a small project, but feel free to purchase the full size if needed)
Grand Total: $6.85
II. WALL ART!
Okay, lets be real. There are so many nice canvas designs out there (Target, HomeGoods and Walmart) but it can be pretty pricey. So let's recreate our own for a fraction of the cost.
1. 3D Canvas Art
If you made the previous items, you'll probably already have most of the materials, if not let me break it down for you again :)
(Tips: Your art piece does not have to look like the pic, make more than 1, turn 4 canvas into one art piece)
Canvas:
Twigs: FREE outside/background (get small sticks and break them apart to make the fences)
Sand: FREE beach or $1.00
Seashells: $1.00
Old cheap gems: style 1 ($1.99) and style 2 ($1.99)
Cheap pearls: your jewelry box, style 1 ($2.99) and style 2 ($1.99)
Acrylic Paint: $1.00 (x2) aqua and light (color of your choice)
Jute Rope: $1.00
(Total price may vary depending on your designs)
Grand Total: ~ $15.00- $20.00 vs. Target prices
