Taking Out My Frustrations?

Who knew that small home reno's were a good way to relieve tension? I decided that it was time to repaint the small half bath that is off of our family room.

 

I really do think these pictures show you how ugly this colour really is. To be quite frank, it was down right embarrassing, and I was not digging it at all! Since I had some living room paint left over (and I love the colour ) I thought it would be nice in the small space - perhaps make it feel a bit bigger - maybe like this?

No? Not possible? Okay maybe I'm just dreaming of a bathroom like that. Anyways - back to reality. First thing we knew we wanted to do was to get rid of the tacky old towel bar. With a little exacto-knife and a hammer I just popped that sucker right off. If left two gaping holes but whatever ... nothing a little spackling couldn't handle.

Hello fresh coat of paint!

... and now with some accessories!

We still have some stuff to do in here. I need to find some artwork or something for the walls, and really accessorize it to the way I like. Anyways, this whole little makeover took me about a day and a half and only cost me the glass shelf and new towel ring, since I already had the paint - woot woot to cheap makeovers!
