My eyes were definitely a lot bigger than my pocket. No new light fixture, no new sink, no new cabinet, no new toilet, & no new tub/shower. At least not yet. BUT, I do like how it turned out. The wall color is definitely a lot darker & bluer than I expected, but I didn't hate it, so it stayed. After everything was "done" (we still need to touch up some areas & paint the window sill & baseboards) I realized the striking similarity to the office. :oP I suppose there's a reason for that--I like the style! Check out the pics:

| Note the mirror with the lovely floral detail. |
 |
| This is my favorite part of the bathroom--I'm not quite sure why I love these light switches so much. |
 |
| I'm lazy & didn't iron the shower curtain--the steam from showers should get the wrinkles out eventually anyway. :oP |
 |
| New blinds! $15 at Home Depot |
 |
| This is probably my second favorite. The tree is a wall decal from Target, the shelves are from target, and the bottle & glass bird is from Pier 1. |
 |
| We painted the cabinet, mirror, & shelves. I think the original sink & countertop look okay--well, they have to. The painting of the mirror didn't work as well as I had hoped. Thank goodness this picture is forgiving. We're going to try to take the mirror out of the frame & repaint--if that doesn't work, we'll get a new mirror. |
Yeah, it sucks our entire weekend was spent doing this overhaul, but I really like it & think it was well worth it. I just hope my husband thinks so too.
P.S. C, thank you so much for your help! I will without a doubt buy you a head set so you can play your geeky WoW game. :oD
Looks great!
