Opinions Needed! ;)

I painted a bathroom this week.
I think it looks like the inside of the bottle from "I Dream of Jeannie"

Now, if I change it, am I discriminating against Jeannies who have the ability to blink and change the color at will ? and if I keep it, will I be contributing to global warming and have scientists descending upon SoWal to study its effect in in grayt depth? Could it potentially raise prices of real estate in SoWal if I start this rage? Will my insurance rates rise because I blinded people?

30gAy, I need your infinite wisdom. :razz:

Saw colors like that (bougenvilla, mango, lime) quite often in the Cayman Islands when I stayed there 3 months for a consulting project. I like it!
It may seem "over the top" when the room is empty, but try some towels, accessories, etc. in the room which can help tone it down a bit.

I love those colors. :wub: Caribbean was what I was shooting for, I am just not used to it. At home I live in a woodsy area with mountain views, so my colors are muted and I let the landscape do the talking.
BTW- I plan a trip to Fired up next time.

I loooooove this. The half bath in our Blue Mtn condo is similiar. I have two large pictures that are mostly golds & browns and black. I put a black, gold and cream oriental rug on floor and used gold and black soap dishes and leopard towels. Just give yourself a few days and go to
Target and Steinmart for accessories.

I hit Target already, I forgot about Steinmart.
I am sure your bath is lovely. :clap_1:

commit to the bold. don't look back.
I am leaving an accent wall. :biggrin:

Mango...amazing!!!!
4 more baths! :scratch: :scratch: what funn we can have!!!
TFT...ready to help next time!! :lolabove:

:lolabove: Imagine the possibilities. We could fill the tubs with wine and get big straws to sip out of. :lol: Too much funn.:razz:

I have to tell you, I was so skeered to look at this thread because you know, our opinions got some of us in so much trouble on the other threads!!
Whew! I'm so glad it's only about paint color! :clap_1:

Well. I managed to faux paint only 2 walls yesterday with a yellowy-beige color (I forgot how hard it is on the shoulders to wash the walls :shock: ) before passing out. It looks a little like wallpaper. I have to do one more wall, and may possibly add another color. I didn't get a chance to hang any art work (which I need to buy), but there's always next time I guess. :idontno: Since there's no window, the room looks a little lighter, and I really love the color now. I am leaving one wall as an accent.

Afunn, you'll have to come here with me and help. All the wine you can drink! :biggrin:

I see no reason to change it unless you find yourself folding your arms and blinking to "do your business".

I love the color too, but the dress needs some work. Rip that broom off the bottom, go babylonian, get a matching scarf for your head, and replace the gun with a genie bottle. Much more vogue, then find your Major Nelson. :razz:

Well, sometimes I spend WAY too much time in there....it may as well be funn!!

I really like bright colors! My son's room is orange (Alburn Fan:idontno: ), Little Beach has a hot pink room (I did use the beadboard half way up- it does calm it a bit) and oldest beach has a lime green room with a pale blue ceiling- and a hot pink bathroom counter top!! We are at the beach:cool: !

okay, we gotta have lunch at your house someday so we can check all this out. I love lots of color in a house when artists like you put it together so beautifully! I could NEVER do it, but I love seeing it done so well by a pro... :biggrin:
