The Bathroom

Bathroomdetail2The apartment is shaping up slowy but surely (see the kitchen here). Today, I painted the bathroom. Originally (up until about 4pm) the bathroom was going to be a light shade of blue to compliment (somehow correct?) the hideous blue tile on the floor--that is until I got the paint on the wall. It turned out to be more of a very light sherbert blue-green color that reminded me of my elementary school's bathroom walls. Every once in a while you make a $22 mistake that's best to admit and fix as quickly as possible. So I rebounded in the totally opposite direction, a dark stone gray. Had I to do it over again, which I do not, I might have chosen a slightly lighter color of gray.

The kitties even got a little present: a brand new kitty box. Our extra long cat Winston Boodaloo_1had outgrown the old one, a very cool Booda Dome. Hopefully the extra length and higher sides on this Booda Loo will solve the peeing-outside-the-box problems that were rather embarassing to poor Winston.

Mmm. I like that color! We were just discussing color options for our bathroom... right now it's a sky blue, but we're thinking a color like yours, turquoise or robins egg blue. For some reason, I need my bathroom some shade of blue.

Yeah, it's a great color. I like a dark color for a small space, and a light color for a large space. I think that a light grey would have just read as dingy white, and the grey definitely helps the blue floor. Some day I'll document each of the 15 different shades of blue tile that cover every surface in my bathroom... even the ceiling.
