Painting the Bathroom

After finishing the major work on the bathroom, the next step was painting. By now I was a little sick of spending hours on end in the bathroom during a heat wave with only a tiny window for air. Over a couple of evenings after work I put 2 coats on…and the results were so-so at best. It seemed more baby blue than the light barely there grey-blue I wanted.

After living with it for a while and installing the accessories that cover some of the colour, it has grown on me. A friend also pointed out that it will look better once the trim and door are painted white as opposed to the current yellowed-white.

And now we know: get paintable caulking, otherwise if the edge of your paint gets on the caulking and pieces will peel off.
