Oopsie... and then we had a new bathroom...

So, it's recently become imperative to work out the bathroom decor... like NOW.

The other day, after scrubbing the bathtub, my roommie didn't put the shower curtain liner back on the inside of the tub.  In all fairness, I don't know that I would have done it either, so I'm not blaming, just stating the details.  In any case, I was next to take a shower and didn't notice this small but important fact.

I flooded the bathroom.

Along with it, went the Bath Rug.  It is in a sage green that matches the shower curtain I bought like 10 years ago.  In an attempt to keep the rug from getting mildewey, I washed it and let her know that she might want to take it out of the washer to hang dry.

Well, apparently, you're not supposed to use hot water on Bath Rugs.  It shredded.  I assume because the rubbery stuff on the bottom acts as a glue to hold the shag in (we also now have little V's of sage yarn here and there around the apartment).

So, it's time to replace the Bath Rug.  But I don't want to get a sage color again, cuz I want to ditch that Shower Curtain, and ultimately, the color scheme.

Considering my roommate has Charcoal towels,  and are relatively new (certainly in good condition), I didn't want to do a scheme that would force her to get new towels (or have them hang unmatchingly on the towel rod).  So, building on the Charcoal, I chose this lovely little curtain design, and happily, she concurs.

She will be able to keep her Charcoal towels, and I will keep my Purple ones.  Our hand towels are also purple (and sage), so all I need to do is switch out the sage for Black and/or charcoal.

I have accessories in mind as well, but will keep those to myself for the time being.

I'll be sure to post photos when I'm done.

And therein lies the redecoration of the first room in our Home Cure 2010.
