From Poop Room to Powder Room

This little powder room was like most peoples guest restrooms. . . boring.  A little bit of carpentry, some paint, and some artistry can go a long way.  On the bottom we built the shelf and shadow boxes and painted them in cream gloss.  On the top we went with a darker base color and then stenciled it with a light beige.

Paint or Stone?

I recently painted a house with an old fireplace that had been painted over many times.  The customer had written off any posibility of returning it to any kind of beauty.  I suggested he give me a few hours with it and he was pleasantly surprised with the result.

Before. . .sort of.  I'd already sprayed a base coat and started tinkering.
