Downstairs Bathroom

These are some pictures of my bathroom downstairs. I got the mirror on sale from Pottery Barn. The lights were on the clearance rack at Home Depot. They are not the exact color I would like (I prefer an oil rubbed bronze), but they'll do for now. The shadows from the window obscure the true color of the walls.

This picture shows the wall color a little better. It's Ben Moore "Charlotte Slate" and I love the way it turned out.

This view is out the window to the side yard. The valance is just a brown toile that I picked up at the now defunct Fabric Place. The window trim is painted with Ben Moore "Gray Mist." It really goes great with the rest of the colors. They all have a nice tone.


This wall shows the Ben Moore "Bennington Gray" paint. You can just see the corner of the new toilet, Kohler's "Memoirs" which I love.

The Bed Project






I went to John's woodworking class last week to see him in action at the lathe. He is making these gorgeous posts for our new bed. We've never actually had a bed with a headboard and footboard, so it's rather exciting.
