{DIY} Spring into Action Bathroom Reveal

Well, I made it to the end.  Barely.  With the peer pressure support of the Undaunted Dozen, I was able to complete my Spring into Action Challenge.

Let me tell you,  this.  project.  was.  not.  easy.

Not because painting is that difficult, but everything that could have gone wrong this week absolutely did.  From illness, to babysitting my two little (but oh so cute) nieces who are both under the age of three, to unexpected school projects.  This project was placed on the back burner until yesterday.  Yup, yesterday.  Took the pictures 7 am this morning and edited the photos about 4 seconds ago.  But, I got through it!  And I'm happy to show you where we are now.

You can catch up on my bathroom paint project from the initial paint sample mess to the before photos and the painting prep progress made last week.


And here is my simple bath now...

 It's hard to tell the paint color difference from the photos, but the original wall color had yellow undertones.  The Benjamin Moore Ballet White OC-9 looks beautiful in the space.  It's a pretty neutral that works with the tile and fortunately with the other paint colors in my home.

A close up of a few new accessories I found at TJ Maxx.  Love the classic basketweave pattern!








Remember my DIY paint sample art?  Here you can catch a glimpse of it in the mirror.  It will be the inspiration for the color palette used in this room.













Under the painting on this wall I'll be adding hooks for towels.












I have a simple ivory shower curtain for the time being.  Hoping to add some color with a new one.







And this huge wall space just above the doorway may need some attention.  Any suggestions?  You had to see me trying to get up there with a paint brush to cut into the corners.  It was a site to behold.

I feel so much better now that I can allow guests to use this bathroom.  :)
