Having now fallen in love with the bronze and gold glaze paints I used in my husband's office, I decided to take it a step further and use just that paint to paint my bathroom walls. Yes. Just. That. Paint. I'm certain I'm doomed for shoulder surgery in the coming years after these projects. I have a new found respect for those who do faux finishes and glaze walls for a living.
The 75 year old French chandelier was a must in here. Having purchased it at an auction with no idea what to do with it at the time, all I knew was that I had to have it. In the midst of trying to restore it myself, I later found out it was not feasible financially to have it rewired. I pulled the old wiring out, utilized steel wool and a pretty shade of off white spray paint and went to town. A few crystals were missing, so I was able to replace those from a crystal prism website online and ordered a few extras to hang elsewhere throughout the house. It is now a "candelier" and when lit, it adds beautiful ambience to our now romantic bathroom.
