Pineapple Fizz

Okay- so it's a little hard to tell in the before and after photos, but this really is a drastic change. The new color (on the right) is a lovely cream-yellow color called Pineapple Fizz. The old color (on the left) was an icky dirty-looking tan, which might have been named Faded Poop.

Here is the sample up against the old color- still, the colors just don't quite come through on the computer. You'll have to take my word for it.

See how pretty and fresh that looks?

Next steps: Pete will install a new faucet and lights. Eventually we'll figure out the medicine cabinet too..... Hopefully before Katie comes, since this will be her primary bathroom. I think I"ll also get new knobs for the vanity, since the current ones are brass and the new lights and faucet are silver.
Tomorrow or Wednesday I hope to paint the eating area....the strange no-man's land between the family room and the kitchen. It will be a shade more yellow....it's called Song of Summer. Ah. Lovely.
By the way- if you're REALLY into these things- the paints are Behr, so you can maybe check out the colors better there.
And now I'm off to the shower.

I think we have the same sink. We painted the cabinet and replaced the faucet on ours, which stretched the budget until we can go back and replace th entire piece. Look forward to seeing the finished result.
