quick powder room makeover

This weekend I wasn't planning on fluffing up the powder room, but I did.  It was one of those things where I just got so sick and tired of looking at it that I couldn't not do anything anymore.

A coat of leftover paint (BM Revere Pewter), and some floating shelves from Target made for a quick little makeover.



Ok, can I just say how tough it is to get any good pictures of a tiny powder room.  Practically impossible to not get my reflection in the mirror, and I couldn't get the other walls in the photo.  



I originally planned on switching out the mirror and light fixture, but I'm not going to bother with that anymore.  I'll tell you why later.  Big news is coming people.  Big.

Here's a little before and after action for you.


Ahhhhh.... better.

Paint and shelves.  Shoulda done it sooner!

  6. I love what you did. It looks so fresh and classic. It also reminds me a lot of our half bath that I have been stumped and wondering what to do with it. Do you have anything hanging on the wall opposite the toilet? We have a long wall there and I don't know what to do with it.

  8. It's funny, I did stripes in my laundry room, never finished the room and I'm already sick of the stripes. The change looks great, although I did like your stripes. It's so hard to take pictures of bathrooms, especially small ones. How does the revere pewter read in your room? Gray or tan? I can't tell.
