Bathroom morphing!

Last weekend I finally got my wish to have the bathroom repainted. 

Spring 2010

 I had a terracotta color for a while, but

I grew tired of it.

 We put on a color called Eggnog by

Pratt & Lambert

and I worked in my Tuscan accents.

 After a while I popped in some ruby red 

accents and a tapestry.

Then last year I saw the botanical pictures and 

these Shower curtains and fell in love with the 

fabric which I blogged about here.

 I turned one of three curtains into a valance.

I had decided to dump the Tuscan look and

go more towards a botanical look. 

  

 I liked it a lot for a while, but I really wanted more freedom to change accent colors if I wanted so I decided I'd go towards an off white that would pick  up on the tiles.

  

   I ended up going with a color called Ice Formations by Benjamin Moore (matte finish).  It was deeper than I expected to go but it has this nice earthy tone and I will still be able to play off it with other colors if I want to.

You can see here how well it goes with the

tiles.  It's very soothing too.

  It's hard to get a shot in here...I'm up against a

wall trying to get a picture. 

The sun finally shined and I was able to get a few shots with natural lighting.  See my new rose colored mercury glass bottle?  I had recently decided to add a rose color to the room and I spotted this while browsing on One King's Lane (again).

Had to have it!

This is from Pier 1 Imports back in February.

 My robe hook...

 Loving that sun!

 I found this and my tissue box cover (Croscill) marked down last year.  

They were a perfect pick up for the theme.

I'd been looking for a rose colored towel for a while but they were always the wrong tone.  There is a rose colored accent in the pictures on the wall that I was trying to come as close to as possible.

I found these at Younker's and they're made with Eucalyptis fibers and 

they're super soft too!

 

I promised my hubby I won't ask to change this

again for a long time!  (He's my painter)

The room was flooding with sunshine today.  It was such a cheerful welcome since we've been experiencing snow, rain, snow, rain etc... all this past week.  

We're really getting a s l o w start to spring here!

Thanks as always for visiting!
