my bathroom is finished! ish.

so after a few months and a lot of procrastination saving up money for bathroom projects i think i am calling my bathroom done! ish. the only thing i have left to do is fix the paint in some areas on the wall. and buy another rug. then it'll really be done. yay! but since it's pretty much done i decided i would just say it is. and not just because i need something to blog about. let's be honest... that paint may never get fixed on the walls. so i figure that means i can call it finished.

okay let's take a look back waaaay back when i started this process




hmm. pretty dull. and boring. and red. blech.

then i found some inspiration


gorgeous, right? still love this...


that picture has been floating around, but i believe it comes from martha stewart. love her. so with this in mind i went to work on my bathroom. here it is today











i wish i had a wide lens so you could see the whole thing. it's so pretty. i love it. it's pretty and soothing and considering it's a guest bathroom and i can finally feel good about letting guests use it, i'd say "it's a good thing." (did you get my martha stewart impression? did it translate over the internet? i hope so.) 

so now if you ever come visit me, i'll let you use my bathroom : ). no, i would have let you use it before of course, i'm not a freak. i'll just feel much happier about your experience in my bathroom if you use it now. did this just get weird? hmm. 

hooray for a bathroom reveal!!!!
