My Dream Terracotta Floor… for €100? | Budget Bathroom Makeover | No Demo Reno

People and blogs

Budget terracotta floor inspired by Ca’ Pietra tiles, creating a warm cottage look without the high cost. A no demo bathroom makeover where I fix my paint mistake and lay a budget-friendly vinyl floor. In today’s cottage renovation vlog, I’m back in the bathroom, and finally fixing my paint mistake from the last video. After not loving the original colour, I go back in and repaint the space, hoping to get it closer to the look I had in mind. But the biggest transformation in this video is the floor. I’ve been dreaming of a beautiful terracotta tile floor, particularly the style from Ca’ Pietra, but the cost would run into the thousands. So instead, I set out to find a budget-friendly alternative, and I think I’ve found something that gives a very similar look for a fraction of the price. In this video, I share how I laid a vinyl floor in the bathroom as part of a no demo renovation, creating a warm, cottage-inspired terracotta look without the need for a full remodel. If you’re looking for budget bathroom ideas, no renovation updates, terracotta floor inspiration, or affordable alternatives to Ca’ Pietra tiles, I hope this gives you some ideas.

Don't worry about others buying second houses. You have a darling home and you've made it so. Part of the charm of your channel is seeing you DIY and figuring out what you want. You are very relatable. And you offer more than just renovating a house. You and your home are sweet and we enjoy watching you. My husband (who is an interior designer) loves that you are persnickity about the color of your caulk in the bathroom. He says that the difference between an OK job and a well-done job,, is the attention to details like you're doing. Well done!

Looks lovely, the darker toilet seat is nice and a mirror in the darker wood will complement it, the placement of knick nacks is a personal thing, so do what pleases you, it's what gives the room a personal touch ❤

Hi Catherine, I to was thinking you could put the lino in your greenhouse then you wouldn't be standing on concrete. I think it would look great. I love your wee house and you have done amazing things to it. I'm not a gardener, so I only like to watch your decorating videos. Marie from Melbourne Australia

Loving the bathroom so far! I'm looking forward to seeing the finished project. Don't worry about trinkets too much in the space. Since it is a small room and it is primarily for guests you might want to streamline how much you put in it.
