Sydney Cox (@sydney.o.cox) shared the bathroom upgrade in a video with her TikTok followers.
She showed off her bathroom before the upgrade, complete with Pepto Bismol pink walls, a bathtub, tiling, and even a pink sink.
The content creator revealed that she had grown out of the pink phase and needed a change.
“Updating my 1950s Pepto Bismol pink bathroom on a budget, tried to make it bearable,” she said.
Using pliers, she manually peeled all the debris and gunk out of her walls, vacuuming it up.
Next, she scrubbed and sanded her walls until they were sparkling clean, and then prepared for a paint job.
It took three coats of white paint to restore her walls to the pristine white she desired and she took it to the next level when she removed the grout and sanded away imperfections on her tile floor.
She primed her tiles and repainted them, finishing off the white floors with a top coat.
Sydney revealed her renovated bathroom, complete with white and grey walls, a grey floor, and a brown and white porcelain sink.
People were divided on how they felt about the makeover, many were for the pink look.
“I am devastated,” said one horrified commenter.
“Omg! You didn’t! That beautiful tile was in such great shape,” said another.
“Imagine how gorgeous this 50s bathroom would be with gold accents omg, agreeable grey will always break my heart,” said a third.
Others agreed with Sydney that this was the right decision: “I absolutely hate pink,” said one supporter.
“So satisfying to see this come out good, gives me hope to get rid of my pink tiles in my bathroom.”
