The Reveal
Some of you may recall my previous post where I was in the process of selecting a color for our Master Bathroom, using Glidden® Paint. Well, this is it, today is the day that I get to reveal our newly painted and decorated Master Bath!

I took a photo at night too, so that you could see how pretty the curtains look. It’s so hard to photograph them with the light coming in behind them. The curtains tie in the blue from the Master Bedroom, to give a more cohesive look to the whole space, without having to paint both rooms blue.
I’m so pleased with the light and airy feel of the room. If you notice the ceiling above, that was the original color of the walls. I like the contrast of the lighter color of the vaulted ceilings against the creamier tan color of the walls.
This is my husband’s sink. We purchased new light fixtures and my stepson installed them for us.
This is my sink. I also added faux orchids on both sides of the room. I could do with a few more accessories, but that’s okay, I can take my time doing that.
I found a sweet little Pillow with some Paisley embroidery, to accent the Iron Garden Chair in the corner.
Selecting the Perfect Color
I went with Glidden Duo™ Paint, which is Paint and Primer all together in one can. Yay! I used Eggshell so that my walls will have a slight sheen and be easier to clean than with a flat paint. I purchased my paint at Home Depot, but you can also find Glidden® paint at Walmart and other fine retailers.
The Before
This was my bathroom before. Just sort of blah with its builder’s beige paint.
It’s amazing what a difference a simple thing like paint can make to a home, and trust me it is simple, everyone can paint. You can totally do this too! If you’re at all scared, use the Glidden paint’s color tools like I did, they really do take a lot of the guesswork out of the process.
The vaulted ceilings really stand out now and the room is so serene and lovely. I just need to hem those curtains now, or raise the curtain rod, I haven’t decided which way to go on that yet! I hope you enjoyed this reveal!

Love the color and how it takes on a fresh clean look by day and a warm hue by night.

What a lovely room, so inviting! You did a great job!
Lara Johnson says
That is just gorgeous! Thanks for sharing. I love to see what other people have done in their houses.
Christine E. says
Your bathroom looks so fresh and clean. Very nice. I’ve been thinking about painting my dining room a pale gray. It’s now a shade of yellow and I like it at night but during the natural light of day, not so much.
NANCY says
I really like the contrast, and the curtains. I have been wanting to repaint my dining room in a very pale grey/blue.
Debbie V says

The paint color is very nice – especially the contrast with the ceiling as you pointed out. I love, love, love the fabric on the curtains!
Mary says
Your bath room is so relaxing and beautiful. I love your tub too!!
Judie says
What a great color and I have been looking for just the perfect color for my dining room. Don’t you love the seperate sinks for you and your spouse. We have them, and it works so much better than 2 sinks in the same cabinet.
Laurie says
I like that color! I am also going to be freshening up our master bath. Thanks for the inspiration.
Jen Coxey says
Serene and clean is definitely the look you created. I really like it!
Krissie says
I would love to repaint our second bathroom. It needs a fresh look and Glidden’s tool looks like just the thing I need to find the perfect color. Thanks!
Pam Tocornal says
Our entire house is painted a very similar color….we love it. Have had this color for 25+ years in 2 houses. Goes with everything. Doesn’t ever scream, “Look at me!”….just there lookin’ good! Good choice…..
Dee Parker says
My kitchen. It’s the same color as the rest of the house, but I’d like a deep orange-red paint in there.
