One Room Challenge: Week Three | Painted Cabinets and Painted Floors

Week Three!  That means HALFWAY!  Holy cow - the time is flying.  Luckily, so is my paint brush.

(If you are new here, I am making over my little girls's bathroom as a guest participant of the One Room Challenge series.  I should title this series, "Ode to Paint" because I am painting nearly every surface in that room!  If you'd like to catch up, you can read Week One here and Week Two here.)  

This past week I painted the cabinet and I LOVE it!  Phew.  I just used some leftover paint I had on hand and it is awesome.  The navy blue with gold pulls is just gorgeous.  

But that's not all!  I also painted the floor with three coats of porch paint.  Yes, three - and that was after two coats of primer!  I think one more coat of white and I'll be done.  But not really.  Just done with WHITE.  But it's all good.

I pinned a ton of painted floors and here were the top contenders:

So - which one did I choose?  Well, I didn't.  Womp womp.

Just kidding.  I let #2 pick the pattern and it wasn't my top choice.  But in the end, it's her bathroom more than it's my bathroom and I want her to be happy and feel like she had a say in it.  So, I'm going to keep you on the edge of your seat and make you wait until next week!  Any guesses?  

Until next week...

Stephanie - Yep! I'm just painting the plywood subfloor. And people are shocked at how nice it feels on bare feet! (Probably because I've got about 5 coats of paint on there.) It actually looks nice - you can't tell it's just subfloor.

Cassie - Thank you! I love the navy blue. And it was such a bonus that it was just a can of paint I had laying around:)

So are you painting the subfloor? Is it just plywood?
