talk about a sweet makeover- designer pierce davis of columbus, ohio made over this bathroom as a valentine’s gift for his girlfriend ashley, who recently moved in with him. pierce explains that he did this project “in the most difficult possible way.. since there wasn’t enough room for a projector, i drew the trees freehand onto a layer of painters tape, then i cut out the shapes with an exact o knife and rolled the paint on. afterward, i peeled the mask off to reveal the trees.” whew! such a sweet and patience boyfriend to take on a project like that. thanks so much to pierce for sharing!

When I saw the before with the claw foot tub I was afraid to scroll down because I thought they may have gotten rid of it, but much to my happiness they didn’t! It is a beautiful space, the painted floral silhouette is really subtle and beautiful. Great job!
Wow it looks great. What a sweet valentine’s day gift. I’m sure she loved it!
I love the stencil work on the wall! I wish my apartment would let me paint . . .
wooowww. The transformation is amazing.. Love the blue..
That’s a beautiful bathroom renovation. Love the white trees with the blue ~ I’m such a sucker for white accessories and blue walls, so nice and calming.
Nice work! Loving it!
The after is simply gorgeous, I love the color and design on the wall.
The shelf above the shower curtain rod is so clever, it doesn’t look like there’d be any ledge to put a shampoo bottle on in that gorgeous tub!
Beautiful stenciling! I love the wall color.
Um wow….I’m totally impressed.
Oh my gosh, I am in awe of the amazing job he did on those trees! What a patient guy!
How wonderful, especially the dog. She is a lucky girl.
I love love love the stencil-work tree on the wall. When my husband and I have children, I plan to do a “forest room” in exactly this style, except the whole room will be silhouetted trees! I’m happy to see it can be done!
Wow, amazing!
love it :)
i always love seeing how awesome and innovative the people of columbus are. it makes me so happy to know that there is another beautiful home in my city.
on another note, i’d like to thank you for posting this – i wanted to put a silhouette in a bathroom i’m making over, but with no room for a projector, i was mystified as to how to do it. this looks like the perfect fix!
love the trees, what a beautiful blue! And the shelf above the tub is great too, bathtub storage can be so ugly!
how do they reach their shampoo all the way up there on that shelf? I would love to do that, but I think I might be too short :( great idea though!
yay! it’s so fun :)
Love love love it!!
Wow. Soooo impressed with the stenciling. Clever with the shelf as well, though only for tall enough people.
Beautiful! I love the blue wall with the tree silhouette. :)
Wow, awesome.
Where is that shower curtain from? I love it!
what gorgeous blue walls with the white trees! cool shelf for all the constantly-mushrooming shower paraphenalia, too…
Such amazing trees for being hand drawn on tape! Truly talented!
This is absolutely gorgeous! I love the color on the walls!
Amazing freehand work and gorgeous colors! Great inspiration- now I just need to find an artist to draw trees for me;)
The tree stencils on the wall – I love that look and would like to do it in my spare room…are there stencils for that technique??
What a gorgeous transformation!!
Its really great to see someone include a bathroom redesign. I’m presently working on my bathroom and I was looking for some inspiration, some new ideas for accessories or what not. The wall stencils is a great idea! Hope to see some more bathroom redesigns on this site.
Now that is true love. So impressed by the handy work!
bravo!!! two questions:
what is the shelf made of/ where did you get it?
did you freehand the trees or stencil/ trace?
i bet the rest of your home is gorgeous!!!
i love the wall decal/ or stencil? but i love ittttt. i’m waiting to buy a place before i get decals. since they’re a one time use i wont want to waste them on my apartment.
I’ve seen some of Pierce’s work before – always impressive!
