Cottage Victorian Makeover – Modern Bathroom Decorating – Thrifted & Antique Decor

I live in a Victorian Cottage style home and it’s been fun for my husband and I to update each room while still keeping the charm of a historical building. Most items featured in this video were purchased second hand from thrift stores, goodwill, ebay, depop and Facebook!

Shop my Heritage Lace Gala Fringe curtains here in the color Ecru:
These curtains sell out very fast, so I will link some other sites below as well

I have been so inspired by the beautiful chateau related channels I watch on Youtube, like Chateau Diaries, Dreaming of a Chateau, Doing It Ourselves etc that I decided to give our guest room a dreamy and elegant makeover! Nearly everything I decorate with is a thrift store, garage sale, or auction find. My husband and I live in a Folk Cottage Style Victorian home and I love looking for unique antiques to compliment our historical home.

    Wow. Stunning, Beautiful, Peaceful!
    I love that you purchased a gift for your future self to use in your home and there it is. Best of all, you get to see it every day. What a beautiful story.
    The fixtures are exquisite, I imagine you having so much fun sourcing them. The medicine cabinet is really creative, I absolutely adore it.

    Very elegant โค๐Ÿ™

  9. Bunnymomjulie on May 9, 2023 at 11:15 am

    This is fabulous! You make me want to do something with my house too! We recently had our bathroom redone after a leak. It was an emergency, unplanned job and we are not happy at all with it, so I am constantly looking to see what we might do in the future. We should have done solid tile like you. Some day.
    I hope some day you don’t find a Dapper Dan type character staring back at you in the mirror! LOL!

    Can you tell us about your gown? Itโ€™s such a fun piece

  11. Jeezum Crow on May 9, 2023 at 11:16 am

    You just have SUCH an amazing gift for stylizing the decor for your house.

    Your bathroom so reflects your love for the Victorian era. Such attention to detail. Your humor is contagious and so love your kind spirit ๐Ÿฅฐ

  16. Gloria Henson on May 9, 2023 at 11:22 am

    The shower looks lovely

  17. Kathleen Fedrizzi on May 9, 2023 at 11:22 am

    Selena, you inspire me, and I’m 71 !

  18. Adaline Proulx on May 9, 2023 at 11:26 am

    I clean a home and she has a lot of marble like your shower and white grout. She uses a grout pen periodically to recolor it white.
    I love eastlake!! I have a gorgeous eastlake mirror shelf unit on my wall.
    That sink facet is insane!!๐Ÿฅฐ
    You shouldve been an interior decorator very talented!
    The curtains i love but in bthm id put a blind behind it to pull down incase people can see in especially at night ๐Ÿ˜„
    I love the tile story ๐Ÿฅฐ

    Always you super moon at this channel

  24. Lu on May 9, 2023 at 11:34 am

    Asa South African we cannot buy the items you buy at your cheap prices. We would pay anything from 5 to 10 times more. You have the most amazing finds in US.

  25. Sara Loftsgaard on May 9, 2023 at 11:36 am

    Very well done! You have amazingly good taste.

  26. J Stevens on May 9, 2023 at 11:36 am

    You have a beautiful home, you really search for the perfect piece to add to your rooms.

  27. Annmarie Marin on May 9, 2023 at 11:39 am

    This space is so thoughtful and lovely. Love it!

  28. Odalys Gonzalez on May 9, 2023 at 11:39 am

    It looks beautiful Iโ€™m glad you are enjoying it

  29. Adele De La Rosa on May 9, 2023 at 11:39 am

    Selena..your fairly new to me…really like soooo many details every where in your home…like me…I believe you are a time traveler, things of the past find you…or somehow you find them (yard sales, thrifting, estate sales) and amazingly!! for a pretty good price, I also DIY nic-nacks, home decor, clothing…a find I will tuck away and be so happy when my plan finally falls together, it’s just in my soul and the soul of my finds….God bless…from So. California…..byeeeeee for now….

  30. Cindy Marie on May 9, 2023 at 11:40 am

    What a bathroom! With so many little dreamy moments to set your eyes upon in many sweet places!!!โค I always loved the swan faucets!

  31. Maryann Wiggins on May 9, 2023 at 11:41 am

    Selena I just watched you bathroom makeover for the 3rd time and it is absolutely beautiful as is all your decorating. I would love to know the color paint used on the bead board as I am redoing my small bathroom in a very pale peach and am wondering if it would coordinate with it. Thanks Love your Channel ๐Ÿฅฐ

  32. Barbara VintageHotties1 on May 9, 2023 at 11:41 am

    Bravo ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘

  33. Bonnie Trott on May 9, 2023 at 11:42 am

    So beautiful

  34. Michelle Pereira on May 9, 2023 at 11:43 am

    Hi Selina, I also just redid my bathroom but with my husband there is no searching for the perfect piece. Itโ€™s more like pick out any tile you like as long as itโ€™s not more than $2.00 a square foot. Only half joking. Our bathroom did turn out nice and I spend time thrifting pretty containers and wall decor. I really appreciate all the beautiful details you put into your space.

  35. Our RV life Irma Brooks on May 9, 2023 at 11:44 am

    I love the story about that beautiful tile piece, I cried, yes I did!! ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿฅฒ

  36. Abundantly Inspired on May 9, 2023 at 11:45 am

    You just have the most exquisite taste and beautiful contagious joy my friend๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿค๐ŸคAnd the tile story made me tear up with you and for myself!!!! I have my own special thing for my one-day-home, too!!!โ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

  37. Yolanda Chavez on May 9, 2023 at 11:46 am

    Your bathroom : the shower is fantastic. I have seen showers that are transparent, but you planned it superbly and the division wall with privacy for the toilet is excellent. I had a bath tub like that in the 80s and it was great for cooling off, relaxing in warm water when tired or achy, love the fixtures for the towels, faucet, and handles, and how you managed to bring everything together in your liking. Great work! You have excellent decor ideas! High 5!

  38. Jazmina Caicedo on May 9, 2023 at 11:47 am

    LOVED IT ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜ GORGEOUS definitely my Victorian style ๐Ÿ‘Œ

  39. A heart made wise on May 9, 2023 at 11:49 am

    Itโ€™s absolutely wonderful Selena. It is truly the most beautiful bathroom Uve ever seen and I adore the gorgeous wallpaper in the downstairs bathroom, I would love to do something like that one day.

  40. Marlen Hernandez on May 9, 2023 at 11:51 am

    Ahh! I love everything! Definitely saving this video to do it at my new house! Can’t wait! Thank you for sharing this! ๐Ÿ’—

  41. Kathy Case on May 9, 2023 at 11:51 am

    I love your bathroom and the cherub tile! I get it. When I finally got my bathroom , I could not believe it. All the antiques and 2 small Chrystal chandeliers that where from Italy finally pulled everything together. It took me over 15 years to get it done and I love it. You are right that you don’t have to spend a fortune. I went to antique shows, stores and estate sales. I also love my claw foot tub. It holds the heat. I love your videos and how you decorate! Great job!

  42. Crepe Myrtle Row on May 9, 2023 at 11:53 am

    Absolutely stunning!

  43. Wagner Sara on May 9, 2023 at 11:53 am

    Very beautiful bathroom โค๏ธ! Thanks for sharing!

  44. Debra Paff on May 9, 2023 at 11:53 am

    I about died when you talked about turning the hot water off with your feet. Same! I also fell for our house 20 years ago because of the tub.

  45. cathelene altamirano on May 9, 2023 at 11:55 am
