It was time. Time to take the boring tan walls and make this room a boy bathroom. I started with painting the walls "Rain" by Sherwin Williams. I went to Pinterest and Etsy to find inspiring Star Wars ideas. I discovered a vinyl on Etsy (which I bought) which started the madness of this room.
I also was told by my darling hubby NOT to paint the vanity. I am trying out new paints and discovered with Chalk Paint you don't have to prime or sand. I figured while he is away what he doesn't know won't hurt him. I also figured if I did it correctly--by taking off all hardware and not skipping a step the cabinets would turn out okay. I was a little worried when the polyurethane wasn't drying, but after 7 days it is perfect. I just didn't realize how long it would take to settle in.
I crafted a sign:
I LOVE my Silhouette Cameo! J-Bird is in to Funko Pops, so I ordered a few Funko Pops to put on a shelf above the toilet. I ordered a Star Wars shower curtain and even a R2-D2 shower head! Who would have thought? I think the redo cost me around $300 with the paint and the trim for the mirror. I put trim around the bathroom mirror. The construction grade 'stuff' is all over my house. It is nice and all, but there are ways to improve the 'grade.'
All in all I am totally impressed with the new bathroom. I don't think my Jedi Knights care either way as they just brush their teeth in there, but I do. AND that is all that matters! :)
