Happy Friday!! I am hopefully on the plane right now to Kawaii but thought that I would leave you with one last post before I left. I wrapped up my bathroom stenciling last weekend and needed a piece of art work to finish things off in there. Something calm and inspiring…
The board was painted with Annie Sloan Graphite chalk paint and I used my Silhouette to cut out vinyl for the letter stencil. Using the negative aspect of the vinyl. I painted the Bliss with just a blue acrylic paint that I had and the white letters are in Annie Sloan Old White. The sign kind of ties all of the bathroom colors together.
The edges and lettering were then distressed.
I just attached it to the wall with Command Strips {man, I love those things!}
I also spray painted my towel bar and toilet paper holder with Krylon Premium Original Chrome spray paint {they were more of a bronze color before} It covered really smoothly and dried super quick. Hopefully it holds up to bathroom life!
I have been collecting some new accessories for the bathroom over the past couple of months since I had the color scheme all picked out. Here’s my little shopping list:
Striped towels – Superstore
Wooden storage bin and baskets – Home Sense
Metal Vase – Wuslu
Turquoise bin {holding the perfume}- Anthropology
Light Fixture – Rona {It wasn’t my first pick but it was by far the cheapest at just under $30}
Black Bins – Home Sense
And that about wraps it up for now!
Since we are off to Hawaii, things will be a little slow around here for the next couple of weeks. I will still be posting the Creative Spark on Tuesday night but, other than that, I am officially on a bloggy break! {although I have a feeling that I will still be popping in here and there!}
I hope you all have a Happy Valentine’s Day and I will see you soon!
