Though, if you do, please let me know! ;)
So, Jonathan and I have been working like busy bees to get things done by the time of our move in date. I have decided that it is time to step my work into high gear. So, my days are spent painting, painting, and more painting. It has been awesome though. I honestly enjoy painting and find it very relaxing and cathartic.
So, let's get to business.
In the master bedroom, I was going for a calming vibe. I originally wanted it to have a shabby chic look, but it is slowly evolving into a very traditional space. We will see where it ends up...but that is a post for later.
and straight ahead there was this room
It was a very closed off and dated space.
Ooo a rare glimpse of the carpenter at work. Let's observe.
So, the wall color is New Born's Eyes by Benjamin Moore and I am loving it. I think that the sharp contrast between the blue and white is very pleasing to the eyes. Oh and the color is reading the truest in the first picture.
I have to say, I am very proud of this room. It is the first room that I have ever panted and I think it turned out pretty darn good.
Plus, not to toot my own horn, but Jonathan said that I may be a better edger then he is.
How about them apples.
Well, I did learn from the best. That is, he taught me. :)
So, needless to say our bedroom is shaping up pretty darn fast.
Oh! I almost forgot to show you the bling we added to her.
Very romantic. I'm pretty much obsessed. She is sparkly and shiny and casts an awesome glow on the ceiling. And she shall be named...
Ok.
I will move on.
Here is the current state of our bathroom. He received his two coats of paint yesterday and I'm telling you he is pretty dapper now! First, the before:
and now the after...
The color we chose is a muddy gray. Sometimes it looks more brown, sometimes more gray. It's also BM in Marina Gray. I would say that the middle picture represents the color the best.
This color, combined with the white of the wainscoting and tiles, is going to really pop. Plus, adding in the accents of yellow and oh man! He is really going to be a looker in the end. I can't wait to show you!!!
Oh! I almost forgot, here is a preview of our tile :)
Yet again...I'm completely in love. I can't promise I will move on from this one though. ;)
