Charming Late 1940s/Early 1950s Bathroom

Our little 1947 bathroom is literally the size of a photo booth, so I used photo booth pictures to decorate it. Highlighting pictures from the 40s/50s and even before, I found and printed pictures from both sides of our family going back a few generations so my children see pictures of their young and very in-love grandparents, great grandparents, and even great great grandparents.

The black photo frames are from our local dollar store. The shower curtain was purchased used at a thrift store. And the wine less than a total of $50 for a brand new look. Here are some pictures to inspire you.
