It's Only Paint!

Welcome to my new salle de bain.

This is the new color I added to my bathroom 

wall and I am loving it.  I first painted the wall 

a gray/blue but it seemed a little too safe 

and didn't make me smile.

This color called Celebration from Home Hardware

Paints makes me absolutely giddy.

I brought in one of my favorite paintings of

a market scene in the South of France.

It's the colors I love in this artwork,

so I chose a fun color and off

I went to the paint department.

If you haven't visited a wonderful Saturday 

market in Provence, this is the scene.

One of the best markets is in Uzés on a

Saturday morning.  The smell of all the

fresh food, bakery items and lavender

is a heady experience.

And the colors just take your breathe away.

I dug up one of my favorite really old mirrors

and placed it near my deep, deep tub 

so I could turn off the lights and 

bathe by candlelight.

I anguished over the color. 

 Do I keep the house completely white 

or do I enjoy a little room 

of intense color?  

What if I don't like it or tire of it?

And then I remember ....

IT'S ONLY PAINT!!!!
