Finishing up the bathroom…..Yeah!

We started on a bathroom remodel a couple of months ago and felt no rush to finish until the holiday season was upon us!  All we kept original was the whirlpool tub, and if we did keep other items they received a do-over.

One of those projects was a wall hanging.  The original was a vintage piece of wallpaper (still attached to the wall it came from!) that was placed in a new wood frame from Michaels.
 The color scheme was being transformed so the wall piece had to change as well.

First, I downloaded a graphic from Etsy:

 and printed it out on fabric.

To print on my fabric I ironed on a piece of lightweight fusible(I used Heat-n-Bond Lite) web to muslin, cut it to 8.5x11 and printed directly on the fabric side.

Since I used a lightweight fusible web I just removed the backing and ironed on the printed fabric to black burlap.  The frame received a quick coat of paint, a little distressing was done and I added glass to protect the fabric.

Here is a quick peek at the home made finished vanity, so happy how it all turned out.
