Half Bath Changes

The other day I was in the half bath and I just so happened to look up.

When I looked up this is what I saw. Can you see it? It is a shadow around the air vent! At first I started freaking thinking maybe the ceiling was damp from a leak  somewhere but after climbing up on the ladder I found out it was just that the ceiling was faded.

I knew that the shadow would bug me each and every time I went in there so I decided to paint the ceiling. First I tried Duck Egg and though I love the color it made the bathroom really dark. The entire reason the half bath got a semi remodel this past winter was because I was tired of how dark it was in the space seeing as there is no natural light.

After a few more attempts at mixing some blues and some grays and Littliest popping in every now and then telling me he preferred the white ceiling I finally mixed up a grey I liked. 

Unless you look at the before pic where you can still see some of the white showing on the ceiling before I cut it in you probably would not even notice that the ceiling is gray. I notice though and that is all that really matters!;)

After I painted the ceiling I decided to change things up on the shelves.

I brought in my vintage blue seltzer bottle that I purchased a few months back at The Houston Urban Market. I have always admired vintage seltzer bottles so I was super excited to finally find one of my own.

The cows were bumped up to the top shelf as well as the little clock from The Hubster's grandmother.

I brought in a few treasures that my friend Brenda gave to me. 

I had been trying to find the perfect spot for the wood bead rosary. 

I purchased this small boxwood wreath from Holly Mathis at The Houston Urban Market as well. I was thinking of getting two and had two in my hands but at the last minute put it back. I could have kicked myself when I got home and had the perfect spot for two. Oh well, till I find another one it looks perfect right here. 

It is always so funny how one change leads to another and another and another.
