Why did I start this project?

I've started a project. It was supposed to be an easy peasy, quick as a wink project. But no. . . I had to make it a pain in my neck, 3 trips to Home Depot project. I've been a little bored with this bathroom's plain white walls. Sure, I've got great molding, an awesome cobalt blue claw foot tub, and beautiful wood floors. But, I couldn't leave well enough alone. I bought a quart of Misty Surf (pale blue) paint and desired to paint the farthest wall as an accent wall. Well, I painted the wall and liked it so much that I painted the other three walls. I forgot about the golden rule of paint. PAINT ALWAYS DRIES DARKER! So, then I was stuck with a "too blue" bathroom. I don't think it really shows in the photo, but when I walk into the bathroom, I think "Whoa, blue bathroom!". I don't like to think about a color when I walk into a room. I want to get a feeling. A feeling of freshness, of calm, or of coziness. Not color.

So, I went back to Home Depot and bought a quart of a lighter blue (Dream Catcher-one step up on the color card). I painted all the walls except the accent wall. I'm still not happy. I'm out of paint so I need to buy another can of Dream Catcher and paint the accent wall. I'm anxious to get started on the other projects I'm planning for that room. A new mirror, rug, and artwork.

If you run into me at Home Depot try not to stare to much at the blue highlights in my hair.
