One room down, how many to go? (Too many!) Brian finished up repainting the kitchen over the weekend. He did it all himself. I'm sure I will have lots of painting opportunities myself in the next week or so.
Here he is hard at work putting on the second coat:
And this is after we put the curtains back up (same curtains we had before with the yellow walls, but hopefully they still work okay with this color):
The color is officially called "Cottonwood" and is a beige color, although for some reason it almost looks a little grayish to me in the kitchen. It's definitely different not having our bright yellow kitchen anymore, but I think it looks nice. At least it's missing all the fingerprints and marks. We only re-hung a few things back up on the wall, as will be the case in the rest of the house.
After getting some bids from painters, we realized we're saving a ton of money by doing the painting ourselves, but it also takes a lot longer too! Hopefully we can get a lot accomplished this week, although with all the kids home for Spring Break (and they all want to "help" paint), it will be interesting!
