For my March Before and After project I've been working on the guest bathroom. This bathroom is shared by both of my roommates so it requires some smart choices and a bit of neutrality. The first thing that had to go was the awful blue paint color. Truly terrible choice on my part.
I decided to use the left over grey from my bathroom because I am a poor college student and a $30 dollar gallon of paint has to be justifiable.
Here's the painting in progress...
I won't lie to any of you.... painting over baby blue was hard.
and terrible.
And not advised.
I feel like every roll of the brush made the room brighter and bigger. Plus it became far more updated and lovely.
It's interesting that the grey took on a slightly blue hue. Perhaps that's just my eyes seeing blue through all the paint. Hoofta. I spent roughly 3 hours trying to cover that.
The next thing that I did was paint the beat up looking corner round that surrounds the shower and is along the floor. Of course I went white.
It made a huge difference! Plus if you look in the mirror you can see the cabinet that I hung up on ONE TRY! Yeah. I am that awesome! It's been working out really well. Yay me!
Here's a closer shot of the new cabinet...
My roommates love it already which I think is a positive sign of a job well done! I'm pretty excited by it myself. What do you think? Does it look more grown up with the gray?

I love the gray! It looks SO much better! And I love your new cabinet. It's soooooo pretty!
