Most of the colors I selected for our house are pretty neutral, so I really wanted to go bold with at least one room. I have been wanting a really dark room for a while, so I decided to go for navy (Behr Peaceful Night). I am so thrilled with how it turned out...it definitely makes me want to try a larger dark room next time.
I had won a Syroco Federal mirror on eBay, and I wasn't sure where I was going to put it yet. While I was chatting with Sommer, she said, you know, a gold sunburst mirror would look really cool against the navy. BINGO! Perfect place for my eBay find...thanks, Sommer!
I also spent way too much time seeking out perfect shower curtains. I wanted something for this bathroom that was just sort of fun/whimsical for Paddy, and not too themed. I bought a $10 white curtain from Target, tiny bits of fabric from WalMart, and I made this one...
In between the towel rods, I needed something for the wall. I stumbled across these 2 pages of scrapbook paper that I had purchased a while back, and I threw them into some Ikea frames.
Finally, oak cabinets are a theme in all the rooms, so I have just stuck with using white accessories in all locations...

It is a long and narrow bathroom...hard to get good pics...
