Quack

Way back in August I decided to redecorate Andrew's bathroom incorporating a yellow ducky theme after I had these pictures taken . . .
This is what his bathroom looked like at the time. And really, there was nothing wrong with it in it's current condition, but it just wasn't very kid friendly.

It took a bit of shopping, and finally some online shopping and ordering, but I finally acquired all of the accessories, towels, and shower curtain. Let's just say that it wasn't exactly one stop shopping, and it took Macy's a couple of tries to get the right things sent out. Then it took a while longer for me to decide on just the right color blue paint for the walls. And that was all the easy part! It was much harder to find a block of time to just get it done. I'm pleased to say that the transformation occurred last weekend!

I really like the shower curtain. It's cotton and the ducks and dots are both chenille so there's a really nice texture to it.
I think Andrew's pictures perfectly complete the decor.
I'm sure that by the time he is old enough to realize that's his naked behind on the wall it will be time for me to take it down. Until then, it stays!


All in all, I'm completely thrilled with how nice the bathroom turned out. It is really a happy and cheerful place to be now, and I'm sure Andrew will like it too. I just realized that he hasn't even seen it! Right now he is still taking his baths in my bathroom because it is just plain easier for me. I guess for his next bath we will have to break in his bathroom!

    We have a ducky bathroom to ....but it's mine. I guess when we move to PHX and Shelby has her own bathroom all the ducky stuff will be moved to hers.

  5. It's very blue "like water" for the ducks. I think it's perfectly delightful. :) Congrats on the transformation.

  10. That turned out great! I love it!
    We've been considering a froggy theme for our guest bathroom where D0n0 takes his baths. I suppose our guests wouldn't mind soaping up their hands from a frog dispenser!

  14. Oh, it is sooooo cute! I have been trying to redecorate Will's bathroom in Monkey for awhile and the block of time is what is stumping me. Perhaps you and your adorable bathroom will be just the kickstart that I need!

    Or not. LOL!

    At least you still have an amazing bathroom.
