I had big plans. Great plans. Great decorating plans, that is. My master bath would be warm, yet colorful. Pretty, yet not too feminine. "Spa-like". People would want to take up residency in that small little room.
To achieve all that, I painstakingly went through each and every paint sample I'd picked up at the paint store. Debated them in my mind. Went through and tried to match a color that would go with the designs in the sink and tile.
Then I finally decided on a color: Folksy Gold.
So I began to paint and my first reaction was: "Oh. This is different. I'm not sure I like this". Yet, I kept painting. Why? I don't know. (I'm still trying to figure that one out.)
Now I have this:
This color looks more terracotta--orange even--so much so that I had to remove that color in my blog because I cannot look at any kind of orange color anymore. I actually wanted a "caramel" color in there. But, no. I have orange. It's like the second sun in my bathroom.
Normally, this "mistake" would be no big deal, but I have NO IDEA what color to paint the bathroom now. It's small, so I don't want to go too dark, yet I wanted to pick up the brown/gold tinges in the sink without going feces brown--if you know what I mean.
So I called in the big guns...AKA my mom. I desperately need reinforcements since my hubby thinks it looks fine and I know it does not. She's coming Thursday.
In the meantime I have to sit tight--and continue having my retinas burned.
What bathroom colors do you like?
