I've posted them...finally!

My bathroom was an ode to early 90's living. Gold, brassy lights and fixtures, pink and blue flowered wallpaper. I don't have a before picture of it in all it's glory but I do have this:

Eeeuuuu! I never liked it but because it was finished and I had little ones and no ambition to work on my house, I left it like this. For 7 years.
Then, I started taking off the wallpaper. Oh, what a glorious day! Then, priming. And, by the way, from now on, I will be wearing a bandana on my head when I prime. Why? Because I lost my balance when painting around the toilet and fell towards the wall. Luckily, my hair broke my fall.


And, I did it again when I painted with the blue paint. No picture this time, but lots of words were escaping from me. Best not to print any of them here. I had a hair appointment the next morning and went in with blue hair. My hair stylist laughed and fixed it. Gotta love her! (I definitely did not want blue hair before my time!)

But, I digress. Back to the bathroom.

Ah, it was so nice when it was finished. I need a better picture now that I have the towel racks up and once I get the wall pretties up. But, anyway, it's better.

As I'm waving goodbye in the mirror, I'll leave you with this. I should have painted long ago. I love the color of the room now and am having much fun accessorizing. The bathroom is probably the nicest one in the house. Especially now that I've cleaned off the counter.
