A two day project that turned into 5 DAYS!
I finally(after having lived here for almost 4 years) scheduled time to paint 'most' of what I wanted to finish painting in our home, which was 2 walls in the kitchen/entry area, the full stairway and the upstairs hall in a color called MANOR GREY by Ralph Lauren. I really wanted to do this so I could get these cool frames and wall sayings up. It doesn't sound like it is a large area... but it really is! I took pictures of most of it so you call all see what a large area... and the fact that it includes lots of doors, a display case like area, and a very tall wall! I still am deliquent in getting the frames filled with pictures...except the ones that already had pictures. BUT, it was a disaster becasue "THEY" (Home Depot) mixed the paint the wrong color. BUT, I just thought it looked off since it was WET. NO! NO! NO! Then, I had to go the run-around with them to get them to remix the paint. It was very frustrating, but now that it is all done...it is a funny story and it looks GREAT!
And, I also painted the hallway into the garage a light grey color! So, now I am almost done painting my house... I have a 'very small' area that I'm going to paint the same light grey color as the hallway. And, I need to finish the last wall (that I originally wanted to keep white, but have changed my mind... I'm doing that a lot more lately!). Same with the 1/2 bath on the main level. I painted only two of the walls and would like to finish all four. Then, the main floor will be done. Upstairs, I'm debating painting the bathroom. And, the master bedroom is still all white, well I painted the master bath so that isn't really true. I can't decide what to paint in the master... and moving the bed (and other furniture) is going to be a serious event! I'm not even SHY about saying I'm procrastinating that in a MAJOR way!
