My impromptu bathroom makeover is complete.
And, for those who have been following this little makeover, you will be glad to know that I figured out the photo editing a little better just this morning.
There is no natural light in this little bathroom, therefore the pictures have been a bit (a lot) yellow (or pink?).
Today, you can actually see the true colors.
Or, if you know me, you can see the new color of my walls in my hair.
I got some paint in my hair and I can’t seem to get it out!
The color is Toasted Almond by Porter.
This whole thing began with seeing a silver platter wall. . .
and, knowing I had a stack of silver platters of my own.
I like the way my dining room looks, so it was out.
My kitchen would be too big of a redecorating task for the weekend.
So, the bathroom between the dining room and kitchen was the best option.
I had enough paint in my garage Β for this small bathroom.
I had a new chalk paint I wanted to give a try.
I had just purchased a couple of great mirrors from Goodwill that needed a home.
I had a weekend that was “event-free.”
All of the stars were lining up for this project to actually come together.
This project was thought of, started, and completed in less than one week.
I even had time to make my hand towels.
That is some sort of a record for me.
By the way, does anyone know how to get paint out of your hair?!
Life to the full,
Melissa

love love love those fabulous silver platters, they really set off this pretty room!!
Your bathroom looks wonderful! I get paint in my hair a lot, but no tips for getting it out. I do have one tip if you’re painting the ceiling, though. Keep your mouth closed. yeah…. π
Beautiful bathroom. Normally I like the silver trays on the wall. The placement as well as the varying degrees of tarnish is what drew me in. The over all look adds texture and depth, with a touch of classy! π
Love that basket above the toilet!
Job well done! π
I LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!!!!! The pig is my favorite, I think – but the platters look amazing!!!
Love EVERYTHING about your bathroom, particularly the eggs, are they real??

Looks wonderful, Melissa! I love those homemade towel labels most of all..and the mossy bunny…and the picture frame… I digress. I think I heard peanut butter gets paint out of your hair! LOL Don’t ask me how to get out peanut butter! π – Karen

The bathroom looks great and I LOVE that silver tray gallery wall. I have a picture of something very similar pinned from ages ago and it is just one of my favorite things.
Have a great day!

I so am in love!! We have such similar taste that it is not funny. Too bad we are not neighbors!;)Thanx for sharing at THT.
This was worth the week wait to see the final reveal. It is tremendous. I am glad to see the flying pig is back. Love the baskets of eggs and the silver trays, of course. All the small details make this a cozy room. How will you get people out of there?
From someone who regularly paints her hair, WD 40 or olive oil usually work.
I have a soft spot for vintage silver and it looks great in your bathroom. We don’t have natural light in ours either but yours photographed well. I had to check out your blog when I heard the name. My great grandma was named Daisy Belle! She was such a sweet and spunky woman.
That is so lovely and very charming with those wall baskets of eggs! Like the wall color — we have that same color from Sherwin Williams in our sitting room/dining room. The color is a perfect backdrop for your silver platters!
Love the wall of trays! How did you hang them?
I love what you’ve done with the room. The wall filled with platters is amazing.
OMG completely unexpected design for a bathroom. Swoon worthy.
What a wonderful collection…love how you’ve displayed it!
Love the platters on the wall!How did you hang them?
I love how you add accents! The trays are wonderful!

Love the silver trays on the wall. How do you hang them?
love the silver trays, may I ask how you hung them?
Your hand towels are great. Looks like I am going to have to make some of my own.
I hope you are selling these in your Etsy shop.
I love the wall of trays; can you please let me know what hardware you used to hang them? Thanks so much!
