Transforming ... more than meets the eye!

So Rich was gone for 9 days working in Canada, so I thought a little project to help keep me busy would be a good idea....
1 gallon of primer, 1 gallon of cream, 2 rolls of painter's tape, and 5 days later, I wasn't so sure my little project was such a great idea! 
BUT!  I LOVE the results, and the master bathroom looks SO MUCH BETTER!!
Goodbye nasty caribbean blue... I wish I could say you will be missed!

The before...
We had also ripped the gold ridiculous light fixture out before Rich left, hence the gaping hole...

 
And we did some paint sampling prior to taking pictures too...

 
Bath anyone?  So relaxing in caribbean blue...

 
FINALLY!  1 gallon of primer and still hints of blue.

 
All primed!  MUCH better already!  Like the only light I had to paint?

 
I owe all of this striping of tape to Frog Tape, patience, and a lazer level...

 
Rich thinks we should have just left the tape and called the bathroom done... I think not.

 
And the final product!!!

 
Now I would take a relaxing bath in that!!!

 
VIOLA!! Our new master bath!!  Worth every minute!  So happy with the results!

  2. I think it looks amazing! Wish I had time to do mine...
    I'm thinking you need a piece of art on the solid gray wall. What do you think?

    1. Yep, I think so.... we've been looking and thought about having an art night and painting our own canvas... that could be a disaster!
