Tada!






OK! Except for a few minor things in the basement area, the restoration is done. Hoo and ray! I am going to wait just a bit longer to put my craft supplies back where they belong - give the paint a chance to dry and cure really well.
Photo #1: Like the floor? It will be so much easier to keep clean than the carpet and is so much more practical. I can't seem to get a picture to show the color of the walls just right but this is close.
Photo#2: New vanity/top/taps and the old medicine cabinet which I refinished. The color on the walls is somewhere between the ligher blue and the darker blue reflected in the mirror.
Photo#3: The beautiful pine doors and, for all the world to see, a bit of the toilet!
Photo#4: I was trying to capture the wall colors again. You can see a bit of the tile in the bathroom, too.
Photo#5: Just another bathroom pic - use your imagination to feel the blue.
The overall effect with the blue and green is calming and pretty much what I wanted. I'm looking into storage for the closets and we will, before too long (hopefully), have doors on the closets. That's our responsibility because there weren't doors there before the flood. A new blind at the window and I'm good to go!
If anybody really cares, go to www.benjaminmoore.com and you can see the actual colors; Whipple Blue in the bathroom, Hazy Blue in the bed/craft room (it's not blue at all, is it?), and Caribbean Mist on the bathroom ceiling and the painted portion of the medicine cabinet.
