Boys' Bathroom Paint
After
Before
The wall color is up. I decided to go with the red on the bottom and Latte on top. I really thought about going with white on the bottom, but having only boys, I was scared that it would always be dirty. Now that the color is done I'm going to live with it a couple of days and see if I fall in love with it or maybe I will end up hating it. This was a hard decision, everyone I asked had a different opinion. I took Julie's advice and asked the boys what they wanted. Nick said he want the bottom red and blue striped. NO THANK YOU!!! I am not cutting in around all of those boards. I have always said the only thing I can not do is accessorize, add "cutting in" to the that list.
This morning I am going to buy my trim for the mirror and look for a new light. I think Nester calls those strip of lights "Miss Piggy lights" (now that I type this, I'm not sure if it is Nester)it definitely has to go.
I have almost spent my $250 for this project and I still need a lamp. While I'm in town I might stop by goodwill and see if they have any I like. I think I want a black lamp so if I can find a nice shaped lamp I will just spray paint it.
I just went back and looked at this post. Sorry for the bad quality of the photos. The light is bright and the bathroom is small.

Wow girl! I love it! You are great at picking the right colors! Meme
The bathroom is really looking good, Wendy! Hey, maybe you could put in a light with a dimmer switch! Or, is that more $$$ and more trouble than you want to go to? What are the boys thinking about it?
I think it looks great. I also love the OU shirt in the mirror! Boomer Sooner!
