How we primped this small bathroom:

Home Editor Alexandra Gater installed a brand new bathroom backsplash using removable, stick-on tiles that look like the real thing (also perfect for renters), added a stylish light (which only cost $18) and transformed the bathroom vanity using inexpensive buys and a little DIY spray paint magic to spruce up existing accessories. And of course, you can’t forget bathroom organization. Using amber apothecary bottles and a retro label maker, Gater shows you how to transform your bathroom vanity and cabinet into an organized dream.
