The bedroom patching (and there is a lot of patching in a house with 65 year old plaster) is done and I'm ready to get my paint on. And just getting my painting supplies ready puts a bee in my bonnet to possibly paint my bathroom. I've got a whole damn hive in my bonnet these days, so what's one more bee, right?
We did the bathroom when I was 8.75 months pregnant with our first daughter and we have loved it just as it is for the past 4 1/2 years. But I'm ready for a refresh. Nothing huge, just a new paint color or something.
I love the green in Kate Spade's bathroom with all of the white tile and the black on the shower curtain.

Of course, Kate's green is a wonderful (and pricey) Scalamandre wallpaper but Benjamin Moore's Baby Fern would be close.
Or, maybe the reverse. A graphic black and white combo with a pop of color would be fun. And really, doesn't everyone want to have fun in the bathroom?
Kate strikes again with this bathroom that was featured in House & Garden, October 2004. (no, Kate Spade is not sponsoring this post. I wish.)

Something for me to think about while I paint...the bedroom. One room at a time girlfriend!
Do you ever get the urge to change a perfectly good room? Any rooms in your house that you're board with?
Cheers to a good weekend!
The title of your post made me laugh out loud :) I love green, black and white together! Oh, and I am constantly wanting to change my rooms around, so 4 1/2 years is pretty good!
ReplyDeleteYou are singing my song, sister! I seriously have design ADD. I am constantly staring at walls plotting my next move. We painted our living room two summers ago and I'm still not feeling it. My husband thinks I'm nuts.
ReplyDeleteI pinned the same Kate Spade bathroom but couldn't get my hubs on board with the green. Maybe I can live vicariously through yours??
Great post. Perfect for the many of us who have the same affliction, lol.
Have a great weekend.
That happens to me a lot... just when I think I've finally put the finishing touch on a room, I see a new idea and want to start all over again! I think maybe being so immersed in design does that to a girl. I'm also loving that kelly green colour right now. I think it's perfect with black and white in a bathroom!
ReplyDeleteI love that green. It still might need something, though. Would you try hand-painting on top? How about a stencil?
ReplyDeleteI love white, black and green too! I'm thinking of this color combo for the kids' bath.
ReplyDeleteI change my mind as often as I change my underwear! The hubby is not always on board so I have to slow down sometimes.
Have a great weekend!
I like the idea of b&w with a pop of color! Calls for easy updates! :)

What about doing a stencil? I think you could find some awesome ones out there with similar designs! Loving the Kelly Green... Have you seen my post today? I am all over the kelly green!
ReplyDeleteI love these two bathrooms but think I lean toward the first one! And don't worry, I completely know the feeling of trying to concentrate on one room at a time - it's the hazards of working on an older house I think :) xx
