I'm takin' a really big risk here 'cause I got slammed to "kingdom come" a couple of weeks ago, in another cyperspace place, when I asked for advice on the color of my new bathroom. So here are some pics of my new bathroom just completed.... and here are some pics of the rest of the upstairs Friday. The hardwood floor guys are up there now so I'll post a pic when it is finished. My head is pounding from all the noise:bang:
Here goes ..... the upstairs has been torn apart since June 1st..... new bathroom is the door behind the ladder in the last pic

Thanks for all your comments.... it's a caribbean blue and the tile floors are a greyish color which kind of looks opposite the lighter streaks of grey the marble tub and sink.

The hardwoods are going in the bedrooms and hallway. It was all carpet and now all that is gone ... yeah ........ man you should have seen the carpet pad with almost nine years of wear ..... yuck

Now when the children come over, ages 18 and up, they will have an extra bathroom. When they were young they had to share:roll:

We're pulling more nails up tonight to get ready for the rest of the hardwood installation tomorrow.... I snuck down to take a break:biggrin:

Anytime ...... you can have your own "suite" now. Rumor has it you are good with "clouds".... mine in the MB needs some help:blush: I'm just a copycat .... not an "arteast". Here's our MB ..... my hubbie just rolls his eyes ..... he won't let me bring my ideas out in the main livin' area:idontno:

The sand is from Abaco and the sand dollars are from SW Florida.

OMG..... I am just soooooooo excited. They just finished. Remember those pics I posted at the beginning of this thread. The last two? They were taken on Friday.

Well, here is the area today. The bedroom with the ladder is full of furniture that has an inch of dust on it but look at the floors...... shoes come off at the bottom of the steps for a while:D

Abacomah - those floors are beautiful. Now I'm convinced I should break down and get the whole top floor of the house done!

Yes, they are absolutely beautiful. Love the bottom photo and the wall color. :clap_1:

What is the color??

What is the color??
It was a sea foam something from Sherwin Williams. I am thinking it now clashes with the vivid blue of the new bath which is between two of the bedrooms so I don't know if we'll keep it in those two bedrooms. The third bedroom is off the hall opposite so that may stay that sea foam green.

Our whole downstairs is that color. Here's a pic of the downstairs/lakeside kitchen. I just love colors ...... it adds to the spice of life:D

We have way too much house now that the four children are grown but they can fill it up when they visit, especially with Rica's puppies. She and The Dogs stay downstairs.

Besides, if we sold it we couldn't afford to buy another one on the lake and OMG to move and go through this clutter:bang:

The main level is boring beige ..... the way hubbie likes it:idontno:

See, now I have room again if some of my new SOWAL friends come through South Carolina:clap_1:

That is a fabulous color and I think that is the color of my son's bedroom.
Maybe I'll post a pic.

Thanks!

I'm wishing South Carolina was on our way to Florida. :biggrin: The color is really nice. I love the knobs on your cabinets.

Abacomah,
You'll have to tell OL where you got your ceramic knobs. ;-)

Kitchen knobs are from Abaco. A place called Abaco Ceramics. She makes them right there. Really cool place. The bright yellow fish in the new bath are from there too.
