Seeing Circles

October 4, 2011 By Shannah 23 Comments

This is sort of a mini-house crash since it is only one room!  My words + Junior’s work is what you get today. Enjoy!

Junior has been quite busy over at her house.  Most notably, she has been painting and decorating the half bathroom on her main level (the powder room, if you will…although, I think that is a silly name for it…we don’t even keep powder in there!).

Inspired by pictures seen over at House*Tweaking, she picked up some gray and white paint.  Then, she proceeded to use that bathroom (alot) so she could get an empty toilet paper roll more quickly.

She painted the walls a gray tone that was just slightly darker than the hallway immediately outside.

Then, using the empty toilet paper roll, she created circles the way around the room using the white paint.

She did a total of three rows.

Once the rings were painted, it was fixture time.  An ORB mirror and light switch cover got some white spray paint love

The final product looks amazing!

The towel hooks (one low enough for her kiddo!) were left as is in the nickel.

Striped towels and a little vase for flowers finished off this portion of the makeover!

Rumor has it art is in the works…stay tuned.
