We started our project with a blank wall (shiplap optional!).
In order to make the Kallax shelving a little closer to console height, we added u-shaped legs to the bottom.

Most of the ideas we share are easily achievable on a budget, make us of things you already have lying around in cabinets and drawers.

When we moved into the our new condo 12 years ago,
it came with the blue guest bathroom you see on the left. I didn’t like the blue tiles at all, but it was new …
also I had no idea what I could do with the tiles beside hacking them off and replacing them with new ones. Unfortunately we didn’t have the budget for that. So we left the blue bathroom as is … for the next 12 years. I really didn’t think much of it until I discovered that tiles can be painted. That was my perfect budget-saving alternative to hacking and replacing. I did intensive research on the internet and asked around, I realized that we didn’t carry a specialize paint for tiles here like they have in the US. So I went for the most durable paint I could find. And Nippon’s PU Recoatable Finish was my choice.
