raffaellasworldHere are some before pictures so I can have a reminder as I'm paying it off just how horrific it truly was.
Looks a lot like cottage cheese with gold confetti mixed in. This is actually and quite unfortunately the original wall "texture" in my main bathroom.
My brother and I both tried to scrape it off, but the gold flecks are very tenacious.
The toilet alcove, note the peptobismal pink toilet and the mirrored tiles behind the toilet (very classy) that someone decided would look even better if they painted alternating tiles black. I won't be missing any of the design features in this shot-at all.
Those aren't even real bricks on the wall, apparently they thought the faux brick look would set off the cottage cheese with gold flecks in look to perfection. That's not even going into the horrible light fixture, tacky towel ring, decrepit medicine cabinet or peptobismal pink sink.
