Some of you may have read HERE how I was selected for the #BringontheColor campaign from Olympic Paints.  It means we got the opportunity to redo a room in our house .  Melinda and I selected our master bathroom because not only was it the most hideous room in the house with the ugliest dark red walls it is the worlds smallest master bathroom. In fact we have 2 of the smallest bathrooms in the world, including the powder room, with the same ugly blood walls.

I may have mentioned once or twice or three times how much I dislike painting but I will say that the final product turned out awesome.  Melinda and I went to Lowe’s and spent at least an hour maybe two looked through all of the colors that Olympic Paints had to offer.  After grabbing a TON of color sample swatches we agreed on “keepsakes” which is part of the blues collection.  We made sure we picked something that would brighten the room to help get away from the dark closet feeling.

It also made me feel good knowing that if I didn’t like the color or quality of the paint Lowe’s had my back with the Paint Pledge Program.

• Lowe’s has your back with their paint pledge, and they’ll do whatever it takes to help you find the perfect paint.
• Lowe’s will refund customers who are dissatisfied with their paint for any reason, as long as the customer returns the paint in its original container within 30 days. Reason for return may include being unhappy with the quality or color, among others.
• Valid on interior and exterior liquid paint purchases 4/3/16-8/9/16

Honestly anything would have brightened up our dungeon bathroom but this color really impressed once on the wall.  The color ended up bluer and brighter on our walls compared to the swatch but it immediately, with the first roll of the brush, made the room brighter and more modern. The finished product left a tine bathroom that no longer felt claustrophobic. It’s amazing what a fresh coat of paint can do for a boring or outdated room.

To be honest at first I was leary on the color because I was worried it was going to take four or five coats of paint to cover up our red walls but it only took two coats. The entire room, top to bottom was painted in one day thanks to the tag team effort of Melinda and I. The bathroom, weeks later, is still refreshing to walk into every morning. We have some decorating to do. I’m waiting for Melinda to pick new art, shelving and accessories so I can install but the hard work is done. Thanks to Olympic Paint this was a pretty painless home improvement project.

We have lived in our current house for just about six years and other than a hallway, a bedroom and some touchups we haven’t repainted much but it’s about time our master bath get a fresh coat of paint.  It’s the most god awful blood red color. Worst of all it’s badly painted. There are streaks, drip marks and things stuck in the paint. For this project we are calling on Olympic Paints from Lowe’s Home Improvement.

I can say that I am not a fan of painting at all in fact I would rather do just about anything before painting but I realized our bathroom is too dark and needs a makeover ASAP.  Yesterday Melinda and I took a ride over to Lowe’s and we hit the color center to see what kinds of colors Olympic paints had to offer and we came home with a few options. If you aren’t sure where to find Olympic paints in your area click HERE.

Exclusively at Lowe’s, the Olympic Paints and Stains Color Center allows people to browse paints and stains in one place. The colors are organized to make finding and comparing shades easier than ever. With Olympic Paints and Stains, you can trust that your home’s colors will look great and last for years to come.  I really liked how the Olympic display was setup at our Lowe’s.  It was really easy to find paint chips and I also love that they have room brochures that get your creative juices flowing.  The room brochures were arranged to allow shopping in 3 simple ways: Color (through all of the chips); Lifestyle (through the lifestyle brochures); Project (room and project brochures).

I took a bathroom  project brochure and a kitchen one since that is most likely the next paint project after our bathroom.  I am not sure about other paints but I know no matter what color you are looking for, the Olympic Paints and Stains Color Center makes it easy to find it.  I picked the colors I liked for our bathroom and Melinda did the same and now we will try to come to an agreement on what color to use, LOL wish us luck.

I wasn’t really sure what to expect before walking into Lowe’s yesterday but after spending about an hour looking at all of the different color options I am getting excited about repainting our bathroom, I can’t believe that I am saying that but it is so overdue that I am ready to dive into this project head first. Melinda will ultimately decide on the best color scheme. This is her inspiration along with making sure it coordinates with the bedroom.

Be sure to stay tuned for our next post showing our bathroom makeover.  Also be sure to follow Olympic via their social media channels which I have listed below:
