I was worried it would:
a. take forever
b. that I'd have to ton a ton of touch up
c. none of my shapes would line up
It was way easier than I thought it would be. It probably took me less than an hour to do the entire wall and I love, love, love how it turned out.
TIP: I added a little glaze to my paint. It made the mistakes easier to wipe off. I didn't touch up at all.
This poor little planter has been brass, black and now has a white glaze.
I found these little beauties at a junk swap @ church. I sprayed painted them white and stuck them on this red thing I already had.
I still need to do some sort of window treatment, but I'm declaring it done for now. I can now cross of #15 off my 40 by 40 list.
OMG How cute is that stencil! I love the color you did it in! It feels so fresh and clean (which is good in a bathroom...haha) Thanks so much for sharing with me!
ReplyDeleteThat is nice to know that it was easy as so many projects are just the opposite. You THINK it will be a breeze but it's not! LOL! Do you live in an older house with tall ceilings? I love tall ceilings like that! How tall are they anyway? Or is it a new house? Just curious. It looks great and last night I was crocheting my ripple blanket and I crocheted a row of red and then turquoise and I was thinking how nice those 2 colors looked next to each other! Great minds think alike! Great job you did!
ReplyDeleteGood job ! It looks so fresh!& just Love the colour combo!

That turquoise bathroom is definitely awesome! I’ve been planning to renovate my bathroom and use turquoise as the main color because it radiates serenity. =) Right now, I’m on the conceptualization phase. Probably by next month, we can start the actual remodeling. Yee, I’m so excited! :’>
