After what seemed like an eternity, the wall color goes up.

The camera adjusts colors sometimes. This color is a grayish tan called 'castle path.'

'Castle path' went on three walls, with the remaining wall getting a darker brown called 'toffee crunch.'

Here's an example of the two wall colors in incandescent lighting.

Using the camera flash reveals the true colors of the walls. This is pretty close to the actual colors.

  
I chose the darker color for one wall just for something different. The brown makes the white doors pop.

  
After the walls were painted, I installed the 1" white wood mini-blinds, inset to the window casing.
Then, work turned to the bathroom, which I painted a light blue called 'saltwater.'

We really liked the look of this light in the store, and we liked it even more after installing it.

With the bathroom walls painted, all the chrome hardware goes up, including this shelf and towel bar.

The chrome accessories have a nice, clean look on the blue.

The blue has just a touch of purple to it. It's sort of a light periwinkle.

Looking from the bedroom, the 'saltwater' looks nice surrounded by the 'castle path' of the bedroom.

  
Next, the mirrors are installed -- an oval one for the sink, and a rectangular one for the shelf. With that,
the master bathroom part of the project is finished.

All that remains of the project are the carpet, the furniture, window treatments and decor.
