Got a bug up my heiney about painting *something* but we really didn’t have the extra $$ to buy 2 gallons of paint for my current project (office / playroom) — so I took the leftover paint from Emma’s room and started painting the downstairs bathroom.
Wait, I guess it’s considered a half-bath when it’s just a toilet and sink, right?
Anyway, the before shot is pretty much like every other room in our house — homebuilder’s white, lol.
And after.
Mind you, there is natural light outside the bathroom while inside the bathroom is fluorescent, so it’s hard to get a grasp of the actual color. But it’s the same color as Emma’s room.
here is a better view of the color in natural light:

Aww, look at little just-toddling-around Emma!!
It was a 2-naptime project with just me painting, so it went pretty quickly, in spite of painting behind the toilet and trimming around all of the nooks and crannies. But I think it turned out great.
To finish it up, I’m going to get fluffy white rugs and a new soap dispenser to try to keep it as light as possible.
And we are now out of this paint, so no more rooms will be Olympic Royal Palm. ;)

oooh…looks great! love the color!
for the painting that needs to be done here….i was thinking of mixing a little of my own. it seems we have tons leftover from other projects and i hate to buy new when we have paint already. i may just rotate the colors of the rooms….but i’m thinking my boys aren’t going to go for yellow ;)
Looks great and way to recycle. Love Emma’s outfit.
