Getting up the courage: primed tile reveal!

As promised, here is the grand reveal of the bathroom tile. I completely re-did the wall in question with paint, hanging accessories and decorations. The only thing I didn't do was paint over the primed tile. LOL! The reason for that is that I went so out there with the way I painted the wall, that I really needed it to sink in for a day or two before I settled on how I was going to paint the primed tile.

Without further ado, here's the wall:

Before

After

 I went Moroccan crazy, but I really like it and the best part is, my biggest critic (Chris, the Hubby) really likes it!

As far as the tile painting, let me tell you the pros and cons and just some of the things I plan on doing differently with rest of the tiled walls. Cleaning the tiles with alcohol isn't enough to get a good surface for the paint to stick to. For the other tiles I plan on roughing it up with a sander.

Also, I'm debating whether I should use a textured spray paint over the primer or if I should use exterior paint. Common sense says, use the exterior paint, it's a humid bathroom after all! On the other hand the adventurous side of me wants to see what it would look like if I used textured rock surface spray paint.

We'll see. To be continued...
