Our New House – Projects Part 1

25 Jun

Hi friends! I am busy packing and waxing our refinished furniture but thought I’d share some (marginal) pics of our new house. I’ll be honest and say that I was too lazy to take pictures of the whole house. And I’d rather post pictures of the finished product…

We painted 2 rooms – Emma’s and a couple walls in the living room / entryway.

These pictures were taken after we had already removed a wallpaper border.

We used Rolling Pebble from Behr. LOVE how it turned out!

I’ve not a huge fan of alternating colors. Or this green.

We went with a yellow that was almost identical to her original nursery. This one is Buttercup by Glidden. It took 3 coats of paint + primer to cover the green. I would definitely pay the extra for quality paint next time.

A few other pics:

And that’s all I got for now! The big move is this coming weekend. I plan to blog more regularly once things settle down… and my laziness wears off.

    Looking good! I don’t mind painting, but it always takes twice the amount of time I expect it will. I like the colors you picked 🙂
