Before...
After
| Fall of 2006, I realized that we would soon be here 10 years, and that I've hated our bathroom every bit of those 10 years. I could never decide what I really wanted to do in there, so I did nothing. For 10 years...nothing. I'd always loved muralled rooms and the art of trompe loeil, so since I'd not painted seriously since high school I decided that muralling my bathroom was the best way to jump back in. I questioned my sanity during a few points. |

I did all of this relatively cheaply, as most things were bought on clearance or at yard sales and just revamped with a castely flair. Some of the little touches...

What amazes me is that someone had the original
displayed in their home.
|
It was fine before, but way too light and plain for
my tastes.
|
Pertiful and surprisingly cheap.
|
Love the towel racks.

|
My childhood dresser. It was around before I came
along and it's been mine for as long as I can remember. Cleaned up nicely.

In the end, I learned that with alot of practice and patience, that muralling is something I'd like to pursue further. Wish me Luck!
