"During" New tile, New texture, Paint

May 11, 2009 by Heather

 

New waterproof sheetrock, tile and jetted tub!

Tape and Santa Fe texture.  Our remodel specialist suggested these little gray speckled squares in the corners of the tile.  I'm so glad he did, I love it!


 

Painting the ceiling white in the middle of the night.

Painting the walls gray, at 4:00 AM, we have to have everything ready for the marble by Tuesday morning, so we do what we gotta do.

There's nothing more satisfying to me than painting a white wall with color.  Painting something white a little whiter, like the ceiling, is tedious.  But white walls to Pewter... I could go all night!  (and I did)

I like the contrast of the walls, trim, and the two tiles.  They are putting in cabinets and grout today,  White and gray marble tomorrow, and I guess a white toilet and white trim.  I'm so excited to see it coming together!

 

Don't worry all you anti-dark paint people, it won't look like a concrete room for long!
