This DIY Painted Linoleum Bathroom Floor was an inexpensive fix for our outdated master bathroom.

Last month (in the midst of being stuck at home) I took a good hard look at our master bathroom.  And it made me cringe.  It’s just not the master bathroom of my dreams.  The dated tiles, and linoleum flooring were bothering me even more than usual (probably because I couldn’t leave the house.)  So, I did what any good DIY blogger on a budget does, and bought inexpensive paint to completely change the look of our bathroom.  I used Rust-Oleum’s Rock Solid Home Interior Floor Paint (available at Home Depot) to paint my bathroom floor and the tiles around my bathtub.  It really freshened up the old floor and dingy tiles.

BEfore painting the floor: This is what the bathroom looked like before I painted the floors.  It’s not terrible, but I feel like this photo doesn’t show how dingy the old linoleum was looking.  No matter how much I scrubbed and cleaned, it just looked dirty.

Just for giggles, here is what the bathroom looked like when we bought the house 9 years ago before we removed the border, painted the walls, and painted the trim and cabinets white.
