Despite my last rant about being a workaholic, I took some time out this weekend to do some work around the house. After an extensive cleaning I decided to tackle painting the upstairs hall bath. I'd purchased the glaze and supplies before Christmas, but had been procrastinating. I knew I wanted to do that bathroom in orange, but after the orange dining room wall in the townhouse, I wanted something a little different. The faux finish display in Lowes was very inviting, and the stripes, or dragging, technique seemed like a pretty good idea.

The result isn't quite as clean and modern as I'd pictured, but it was a fun experience. We both definitely like the color, but aren't sure about the finish. When I pictured the finished room in my head, the shower curtain matched perfectly, but now I'm not so sure. Opinions?
