Continued slow work on the guest bathroom

Image
This guest bathroom has been a great place to learn and practice. My second attempt at faux bricks is a little better than my first. I made them out of the same mortar mix I use for the flower pots and other outdoor stuff. This was my first effort at faux brick. After trying to form them with joint compound, I made them out of Paperclay and stuck them to the wall with construction glue. Faux finish on the tiles and plastic molding turned out nice though, I think. The peeper you see on the wall behind you when you look in the medicine cabinet mirror. My attempt to give a washed, aged look to the door. Just a close up of the wall -- turquoise and violet with touches of metallic gold.
