Before heading to SNAP, I rushed to get the bathroom painted. Ever since painting our master bedroom in Benjamin Moore Metropolitan Gray, I’ve been dying to get that same color on the walls of the bathroom. We headed to the store to get the paint mixed, and encountered the nicest guy who took lots of extra time to involve our boys in the entire process.
I only had to refill the roller once during the entire painting process. It seriously blew my mind. And it actually made painting fun! I loved being able to just keep going and going {just call me the Energizer Bunny}.
Better yet, the damage to the wall was pretty minimal as well. Now the lights just need to be removed {and the electrical relocated to the ceiling} and that gorgeous cement tile can start going up on this wall!
Do you guys use the Nextdoor app? I try not to spend too much time reading the conversations for my neighborhood because, like all social media, it can bring out the worst in people… but I’ll tell you what, it’s an amazing resource for finding new homes for items your ready to part with. I listed the mirror in the free section, and within a few hours had three neighbors lined up ready to take it off my hands. We sat it out front, and someone should be picking it up tomorrow!
Actually, this is just step 1 in the plan to add a door while still keeping my precious bathroom television. {I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m hooked on watching sitcom reruns from the tub}.

My favorite paint color is grey. I love the range of greys and use it as a neutral.

Angela – you are just amazing to be able to get all of that accomplished and being out of town for part of the week! The bathroom is going to be gorgeous! We hit some snags with our closet this week and grateful that we have three more weeks to get back on track! Cheers to a great week!

Denise Greenwood says
It's coming along nicely Angela! As much as I paint, I can't believe I don't have one of those paint sticks yet! Favorite paint color? – I am currently loving all thing white – I love the versatility it gives me with all the other things in the room. Can't wait to see the tile!!

I am a huge bath person and am jealous of the TV in the bathroom!
Jenn @ Loveland Lodge says
It's looking great! The paint is a fabulous color.
Zan Turner says
Wow, what a week! I am glad you are back and have been tackling this project. It is coming along nicely. I have not heard of Nextdoor App – something to look into.And that paint roller, by the way, is awesome. Thanks for the giveaway! I just repainted a tiny bathroom and the corners were a process to tackle!

My favorite paint colors are taupe and gray. They allow accents to pop and keep warmth in the room. I cannot wait to see the finished room.
Rebecca says
Based on a recommendation from the Benjamin Moore guy we painted our Family Room with adjoining kitchen using Cumulus Cloud. I love it; it's a true gray and doesn't have any funny undertones.

Greys can be so hard to pick, and those look great! Can't wait to see the final product.

I like off-white as a paint color because accents and other things are easy to match.

I love color combos with paint like in our home our trim is done in white hyacinth and the walls in macadamia nut.

I wish I knew what my favorite paint color was, because right now I need to decide on colors for both exterior and interior. I tend to go with greyish shades and like purple.
