Well, we had a few hiccups with some of the design that I was thinking about for the makeover, so now I am kind of regrouping and trying to decide what to do next. Paint is definitely going to happen and I am still in favor of white. I think it will be light and bright since there isn’t a window in the bathroom.
I ordered a fabulous gold faucet that I thought was going to be the show stopper of the room. You know the jewelry that always grabs your attention. I found this faucet on Amazon and it looked totally amazing.
When it came it is truly gorgeous, but wow, it is way to big and over sized for the scale of our sink.
See how much bigger it is than the normal set we have now. It is definitely huge.
I am totally impressed however with how well it is made and packaged. They even put it in a beautiful nylon sack to keep it from getting scratched.
Next consideration. This is the texture on my walls. This is an exaggerated pic to show you, however a friend of mine that has stenciled a lot seems to think this is way too much texture and I won’t get a good result from stenciling. I am still going to do a sample spot, if it doesn’t work, then I have to figure something else out.
My next decision is to figure out the shower curtain fabric. I have three that I am considering. They are all a nice brown and white. I took each of the fabrics and gathered them over the towel rod to get an idea of how they would look.
This looking at the fabric through the mirror. Pretty design with flowers and vines.
Fabric # 2 is all flowers
Fabric #3 is a stylized leaf
I do like the chair rail and the wide molding, they add some nice architectural interest to this wall.
Can’t wait to caulk them and then paint. I think it will make a huge difference.
I also love the vanity and how it came out. The gel stain gave it just the perfect color. It looks a lot richer and more up to date.
Remember, this was my original inspiration board.
I have a few changes that need to be made, so I am back to the drawing board for a new faucet, mirror and to see if I can make a stencil work or not.
What do you think about the three fabrics, which would you choose or should I keep looking. Not so sure about any of them. Black and white could be an option too.
You can still link up to Inspire Me. So much to see so check a few things out.
