Pink and Baby Blue... What To Do?

So our house was built in the 1950's and it has that lovely pink tile in the bathroom.  It is all basically in very good shape and we don't want to go through the expense of completely remodeling our bathroom. Plus since it is our only bathroom we would have to be on vacation or staying in a hotel when it is done. We decided that a spruce up and coordinating color change was in order.

The off white that was on the walls was just not doing enough to tone down the pink with baby blue border. Since our home is a Cape Cod style house and we are close to the water Kim suggested a beach theme and colors which of course will go well with the existing pink and blue.

Simple enough, right? We just need to take the time to clean everything out, prime, paint, put back and we are done. Not so fast...

I was cleaning out and got to taking down the mirror/medicine cabinet and this is what I found!

Apparently the former owners had one of those, oh so stylish, recessed medicine cabinets with vanity lights on either side. I do have to say that I am glad that it was replaced before we bought the house.  However, I wish that they had at least taken the time to fix the holes. Ugh! To top it off they left uncapped live wires sitting in the walls. Double Ugh!

So I filled...

And I patched...

And I repaired the hole and primed the walls...

Now we are ready for paint, a new mirror and light fixture, new shower rod, caulking and some fresh accessories.

Check back for bathroom updates. I think the final product will be really nice.
