I'd been itching to do a little painting recently, so I decided the master bathroom would be a reasonable project to tackle in a day. Last summer I had painted the cabinet, bought new towel ring/paper towel holder/robe hook, spray painted the hardware, painted the light fixture and tried to patch some holes and paint over them. However, there are about 5 cans of taupe paint in our basement, and apparently, none of them are the master bath color. Ugh. A friend had painted her bathroom this really pretty light blue. More of an ice blue; bright, but not baby blue. We already had chocolate brown towels and shower curtain and light blue rugs and hand towels. So last Saturday I called her up to get the name of the paint and Sunday I went to town (even though Eddy was out of town!). Of course, once I started painting I saw all these little things that could be touched up. You'd never notice what I did, but I can.
The color is kinda hard to capture, but you get the idea.
The curtain hooks are brushed nickel squares that orginally had black centers. So I took the blue paint and painted the centers.
For the wall space next to the cabinet, I was considering getting a photo in "sepia" put on canvas, but with it being more expensive than I thought they were, I'll probably put up the two small art squares I had up previously.
It's amazing how a little bit of paint makes everything seem fresh and new!
