Believe it or not the whole bathroom was based on one object that I had gotten from some demonstration. I liked the country blue in it and went from there! It's something that I think I will never get tired of (which I tend to do)
Yes, my mom, dad and sister all smoke too. I'm so glad I didn't pick up the nasty habit. I know it's very hard to quit and people do try but it's just a gross habit that yes, does affect other people!!!
