So the main Guest Bathroom upstairs was in interesting condition when we first arrived. Starting with the soft pink rose colored walls (pictured here), and a white/pink/gray colored linoleum tiles (bleh).
I spent my very first day working at the house (literally DAY 1), taping off the bathroom. I couldn't stand the pink, it had to be changed asap!
Missy had not given us any of her color choices for the bathroom, so she left the decision up to me. I knew that unfortunately the linoleum was going to have to stay (for at least the first few months, or year) until money-wise they could afford to change it.
So with that information at hand, my Dad and I headed down to Henry's Hardware to pickup a Valspar paint. I'd brought a picture of the tile into the store to try and match some kind of color. I ended up picking a color called "Beluga Mist", which was a medium/light toned gray.
My Dad was suspicious of my choice at first, but once it all dried he was very pleased with house it turned out. It's a nice cool color, and it makes the weird linoleum. Since it is such a neutral color, it leaves Missy plenty of choices for accent colors for the shower curtain, towels, etc.
I complained to my Dad about the stained cream colored toilet seat (pictured ON the toilet) that doesn't match the white porcelain toilet, so he bought a new one for me to install! Yay for new toilet seats!
Also pictured above you may notice the white legs of the sink, (in previous picture they were a silver chrome color), my Dad had the genius idea of getting a white spray paint and it really worked out well!
