My Painting that Hangs Over the Toilet

Once again, I found myself in a little hot water with my kids.
.
They came home from school and discovered I painted their bathroom brown. For days, I heard all about the many ways I was wrong to not only paint their bathroom, but to paint it the color that I did.
.
It was on a whim. Most of what I do is. I'd never get anywhere if it weren't for whims.
.
So anyways, in an attempt to throw more color into the bathroom, I did a painting to match the shower curtain.

And hung it over the toilet.
.
And pondered over the why's of trying to make a bathroom pretty anyways.
.
But now that I am looking at this picture, I am seeing the green is off. How did I not see this yesterday? While painting.... while hanging? It's totally off!
.
And so am I.
.
I am off to the store and off to fix my green.
.
.
.
p.s. I have 4 people that has emailed the MUST HAVE food storage items. I think I need about 6 more to make this fun. If you haven't emailed yet, please do.

I like the green... it's not off just not exact and I like things a little less matchy!

I love the brown walls!!!

Mel said...

I like the fish bowl idea better.... But, brown is cool. I love the painting. Needs a touch more yellow, maybe!

Queen- me too, seriously, would never get anywhere without 'em. :)

Kanoe- Thanks!!

Mel- the walls were brown already.... I just needed to paint the canvas. Probably right on the yellow.

I think the colors are just fine the way they are. I gotta give it to you, you are braver than I. I'm not that daring when it comes to decorating my home with paints. That's why I just stick to creating colorful stuff on papers.

I love that your whims are so creative. Come play my Pay it Forward game...I'm dying to see more of what your whims will inspire you to do.

That is beautiful. I love it. And who cares if the green is off. I'm so impressed.

How much longer for your contest? I can announce it for you.

Crash- Thanks darrrrlinnnng. :) I am waiting on more entries for the contest. So maybe another week? And thanks for announcing, that'll be awesome.

Dar- Why thank you for being so kind and saying something kind. I like your kindness.

Anjeny- One thing I am not afraid of is color on my walls. My brother recently informed me that I should be though. :-O

Don't listen to your brother...
