My daughter looked through Pinterest with me and decided she wanted Ombre walls in her bedroom for an underwater themed room. I was up to the challenge!
I measured the wall height and divided the wall into 5 equal parts. We headed to Home Depot and chose our paint colours. We chose the P450B palette. I decided to purchased 1 gallon of P450-6 Tropics, 1 gallon of P450-4 Hidden Sea Glass and 1 gallon of plain white.

We painted the lower part in the darkest colour, P450-6 and painted the middle section in P450-4. I then mix equal parts P450-6 and P450-4 together in an plastic container and painted the second part in this new colour.

I then mixed equal parts of P450-4 and white paint in a separate container and painted the fourth section. Originally, I was going to paint the fifth section white, but it looked funny, so I added just a little P450-4 to give it a little colour.
My husband built a headboard with simple panelling and reclaimed wood. Once assembled, I white washed it the easy way (mixed white paint with water - about half and half). I then drew a tail detail onto paper, cut it out, and traced it onto the headboard. I then painted it in, using the darkest colour P450-6.
I bought the bedding below from Bed, Bath and Beyobd. Bought two white ALEX pedestals from IKEA and bought a butcher block countertop.
This is it the final product, but it's a start. More to come!
Once all the painting was completed we added some cork flooring.
