Antiques

Today I managed to spill salsa on my khakis... and in case you didn't notice salsa smells like b.o. when you're not eating it. So every time I shifted, I got a whiff of it and wanted to scream that it wasn't me it was the salsa. I swear it! I get so distracted by minor things like that. Annnnywho. Tonight I was inspired by our peeling ceiling to go with antiques as the topic for the week. I can't wait to redo that bathroom. I've got big plans which include painting that ceiling anything but white. I've wanted a color painted ceiling for some time and I think I'm gonna go for it. Why not?

First up is this medicine cabinet in the guest bathroom (same as the peeling ceiling). I freaked myself out thinking about some old woman staring at herself in the mirror with a pasty white face and stringy hair (no offense to my white sistas and brothas..) Then it got all Bloody Mary and I had to move on. Sidenote: when we were little we'd have these huge slumber parties and one of the games we played was called Bloody Mary... where did we get such twisted minds at that age??? I blame TOJ. ha!


Next up is the ugly ceiling.
Sometimes I think it says we're too poor to redo our bathroom right now and sometimes I think the cracking paint adds character. Today I'm feeling nice and I'm leading towards the latter. Check it.

Okay, so I darkened it just a little to add just a little extra effect. It just didn't look that bad when I saw it on the screen. Had to make you believe in the colored ceiling cause.

And finally. Hace Frio! Original porcelain knobs. Too cute too boot. If we ever move, I'm taking it all.
