After much time looking at the plain powder room Joel decided it was time to paint it. Most of our rooms were painted by a professional, however we opted out on the powder room and the loft. Joel spent many trips to Lowe's trying to find a good miss tint. (Miss tint- a can of paint that someone has returned because it was the wrong color, often the larger cans are reduced in price to about $5.) He found a couple of good greens, but nothing that quite worked.
He got some advice from a coworker to mix several colors together and voila, he created what he likes to call, "The Perfect Shade of Green."
The powder room is a fairly small room, so you'd think that it would be a breeze to paint. Hmmm I don't know if either of us would describe this project as that. Joel took down everything in the room, mirror, towel rack, and so on and began to paint on Saturday. I helped a little with touch ups and of course the lower areas that Joel was too tall to reach, like behind the toilet and sick, lucky me...!
In all Joel did 98% of the work and hard work at that. But the painting is done as of Sunday night and looks great! I actually like the color too. Plus, anything's definitely better than white. I guess next on his list is the loft/man room. It's a much much larger room, to be continued....
