I won't go into the long detailed story but putting the bathroom back together took years, tears, fights and a lot of money and little actual input from me other then "nagging" to finish it. It never was finished and eventually we got divorced.
Since then I did have a co-worker hang up molding around the window and the door frame so when you walked by the door you couldn't see in anymore. It was unfinished/not painted molding and I never did paint it. I did get around to grouting the little nook that had tile. I posted a post about that.
This weekend I decided that I would try to finish/update it. I would love to gut the tub area but I don't have the time, money or skill for that.
My plan was to paint and lay down some new tile on the floor and I wanted to do it all this weekend.
I did not get very far. I was able to break up the 3 tiles that I needed removed that were placed higher than other tiles which prevented the door from closing and got the area patched and level. So that is a plus.
I am struggling with paint colors though. I wanted a nice sage green. The first color I picked was too light. The second color was too dark. The third color was too teal. I did mix the first and second and that was closer but those were just samples. I ended up buying a gallon of the too dark but now I'm questioning it.
I want something neutral but still a color and not just white or beige.
Too light
Darker and too teal
Mixed the light and the dark
This is what I am working with. Any tips/suggestions for a new color scheme!?




You could do the teal as an accent in there, I like the color, but I don't know if I'd want the whole room that color. You could alwso do a two tone wall, like the lower half is the darker color and the upper half is the mixed with the too dark as the accent.
ReplyDeleteI REALLY need to proof read what I say.
ReplyDeleteI meant lower wall = mixed color
upper wall = light color
accent = too dark color or teal
I do like accent walls but I'm not sure how they work in small bathrooms. The idea of a two tone wall is a possibility.
