The Seven Spot: Brush Your Teeth!

Baby Danny's nursery is still in complete shambles. Boxes, old furniture, crap crap crap. I have 3 weeks of work left and then I'm going to really bunker down and get it done. In the meantime, I've been wracking my brain about what to do in the little bathroom upstairs that will be used as Baby's and for guests as well. Right now it's your typical suburban bathroom, except that it has this HORRID acid yellow paint. I did not pick out this paint color as I am not, um, BLIND. But Dan and I don't ever use this bathroom so we've never bothered to paint it until now. But since I will be spending some time in there in the near future, I decided it was time for a little makeover.

Eventually, I want to gut this bathroom and put in a new tile floor, vanity etc. but it's lower on the home renovation priority list, so for now a new paint job and accessories are in order. I want this room to be fun and kid-friendly but still appropriate for guests. I am a huge fan of gray paint and have chosen Martha Stewart's "Cumulus Cloud" for the walls:

Towels will be these green polka-dot ones from Pottery Barn Kids:

I have a white waffle-weave shower curtain that I love that will stay in the room. I've been trying to decide on some artwork for months now. Dan and I are really particular about the art in our home. We aren't ones to buy something because "it matches the couch" and prefer art that we've collected on trips or that has some other kind of special meaning. This room is kind of an exception to that. As such, I've not really "shopped for artwork," um, ever. Everything in our home has been collected over the years.

I figured my best bet for something fun was probably etsy, but it still took me a while to find something I loved. But tonight I came across these prints and knew it was meant to be:

Aren't these so fun?! They are 8x10 prints, so I'm just going to find some cheap oversized white frames. Our home is very traditional, so I am loving having some non-traditional spaces to decorate. I will post pics when it's done!
