color mess up

Ok, I decided to paint the kids bathroom. Audrey wanted green, Will wanted blue and I picked a yellowish gold. So of course I won. Well I have used Home Depot for paint before and always have been disappointed. Well I was changing toilet seats (have been asking Mark to do this for 3 years now), and I was already there so I gave them my color to match. When I picked it up he showed me the color and told me when it dried it would match perfect. Yes, I believed this. So I bought it and came home to begin. First when pouring the paint I spill half of it in my tub. All I could say was CRAP. So I begin to paint. Then I slip and my foot goes into the paint. Once again the word CRAP comes out. Audrey continued coming in asking me if I had everything under control because she wanted to help. I felt this wasn't a good idea because of the language coming out of my mouth. Well one of the times she came in she leaned back on the wall. All I could say was, no I did not say that I just said UGGH. I know better when they are around. Well tell me what you think of the colors.

So here are the two paint colors. I picked the one on the left and they gave me the one on the right. Mandy thinks my bathroom looks neon. Mark promised me that he would paint all the cabinets and trim in the bathrooms white within in a month. He has 3 weeks to go. So I figured I will go to Sherwin Williams and get the color I wanted and he can re paint it. Unless, I get enough people telling me they like it. HMMM




Before, Yes it is a mess compliments of Audrey doing makeovers on all her friends.After, the bow holder I made for Audrey to keep her bows straight, even though she doesn't keep them straight. Don't look at the blinds they need to be changed.

I like the color on the right MUCH better than the one on the left. Don't do white trim and cabinets, do off white. That'll make it softer.
