Bathroom evolution

We haven't been in our house for an entire year yet, and our bathroom is now in its third coat of paint.  We updated the cabinets and the original yellowish paint color when we first moved in.

After moving in, I repainted it a sea foam greenish color and immediately hated it.  Not to mention we had some serious plumbing issues that needed to be addressed.

One thing I never updated that drove me crazy every day was this marbled green 80's looking counter top on the other side of the bathroom...you can't really tell how ugly it is from the pictures...but it was awful.  I was initially planning to tile it, but the left corner edge isn't a right angle and I didn't feel like going through the hassle, so I left it in all its ugly glory. 

Last weekend we finally started the re-painting project.  Here's Andy, slapping on a coat of primer.

There is a new beautiful light gray that now covers the walls.  It's "Twilight Gray" from Behr.  Now every room we've painted in our house is a different shade of gray, and I absolutely love how the shade turned out.  (If you look closely, you can see the super ugly counter top better in this pic).

I remembered I had a big roll of chalkboard contact paper left after this little project, and I love projects that cost me $0.  So I cut out the amount I needed and BAM!  A new counter top.

I remembered I had a silver tray I had thrifted awhile back, and put some little do-hickeys on it, along with a message to give it some flair.  (I think I'm going to spray paint the wicker baskets below as well to go better with the color of the room.)  But I just love how the walls turned out...my bathroom feels bigger and brighter and I'm liking being in my bathroom again. Plus, I get to leave love notes on the counter...howcoolisthat?

I still need to get some things on the walls, but overall...I'm stoked about my new bathroom!
