The Guest Bathroom

Our guest bathroom is 90% complete.  All that is left to do is a bit of paint touch up and we need to put some stuff on the walls.  I still can't believe this is the same bathroom.  Here is what it looked like before it was gutted.
It was awkward and not very functional...there was a bathtub, but with that angled wall above it there was no way to install a shower. 
After it was gutted we decided to move the plumbing so we could turn the tub the other way--that way it could function as a shower.  The area behind the tub was framed in; we were going to loose a ton of space behind that wall, but this was the most affordable option.  We could've bumped out that angled wall, but wanted to keep costs as low as possible.

I was going to just add vinyl flooring, but since it was such a small space to cover I decided to go with tile. 
We only had room for a small narrow vanity, fortunately we found this one on sale at Home Depot for $149.
The space feels surprisingly roomier than I expected it be.  Now I just need some fun prints to put on the wall--this will be where Parker takes her baths!
