So yeah, ok its cold outside and winter still, I am anxious to get outside but for now, remember that dark paint I put on that one living room wall, reddish mauve or something back in December 2010? (post link)
Well I have lived with it for over a year, had to get my moneys worth but I just can't stand it any longer
So today we are painting the wood trim around the windows because I am just not impressed with the dark old wood and of course, this IS happening while hubby is at work or I would get scolded
I had one wall painted that dark reddish color, the 2 end walls mushroom like taupe and the front window wall was still off white, but all that is soon to change, I started with painting the window trim and baseboard trim, it took several coats of primer and paint
you can see the different colors
piling everything on the couches away from my messy paint, see the dark old window trim?
here we go, got some of the walls painted, dry and putting up some of my wall decorations, that misery whip was my great grandfathers!
I am liking the room in this color, I need to do touchup trim work yet
and look, the ladder I put on the wall has family photos in it now!
front window wall is not yet painted, I am working on the window trim here today, just look at that view
this end is done, and trim all touched up
front window wall in progress
the paint is from Lowe's, some historic preservation paint line "Mark Twain House Olive"
Backfire thinks she is hiding over by the front door, gonna have to move her to clean and finish painting that wall
will update later when the paint is all done
