2. Painting Bathroom

Our main/guest bathroom desperately needs repainting. We originally painted it a rich maroon color, that matches part of our shower curtain which is the Mustique pattern from JC Penney, which is now a bedroom set exclusively. Unfortunately, we used a flat paint (which is apparently a HUGE no-no for bathrooms) and it is pretty dark which is going to be really bad for resell purposes, which we want to keep in mind, in case we find a better job elsewhere (read -- closer to family).

We have been thinking of doing it in a taupe, taking it out of the curtain, but also probably from the countertop in there, to make it seem bigger, and more inviting for future house selling purposes. Oh, and in a semi-gloss, I'm thinking. Our other bathroom is in high-gloss, and that is probably too much. The other bathroom will also need to be repainted before selling (it is a bright turquoise), but we like it and are willing to wait to paint that when moving is actually a reality.

Estimated time needed: 6 hours, in two sessions, at least. We will need to prime, to cover up the really dark color, and will probably need to put more than one coat of the final color.
Tools needed: paint brushes, paint, drop cloths
Estimated cost: cost of paint
