I'm excited to show you guys another finished room in our house! CP and I can't take all of the credit for the painting- my parents spent last weekend with us helping us do everything except roll the walls. With all of the trim, CP and I would have taken AT LEAST two weekends to do all of this.
Now on to the before shots:
 |
What fantastic Miami Vice/mint chocolate chip green on the walls!
(I still love the color I picked to stain the floors. It's so pretty and it makes me happy.) |
 |
| Oh yes seller, painting the mantle and the windows in a darker nasty green was a great idea! Blech. |
 |
| At first we thought about painting the room a similar color as we did back in our CT house because it went so well with the furniture and our rug. But then we decided that would be too boring. |
 |
| Just painting the trim a white already makes a difference in the room. |
 |
| Making the mantle stand out. |
 |
| The room looks so fresh and clean! |
 |
| Success! Benjamin Moore Oxford Gray on the walls/mantle, Benjamin Moore Lily White on the ceiling, mantle and bookshelves. |
Next up? Most likely the living room- which means starting to tackle our first room full of WALLPAPER (even in the hutches- who does that?). Ugh.

Love the new colors. Definitely makes the molding pop and I really like the walls. On my computer, it looks like a slate blue/gray, but it's really lovely.
Looks great!
Wow! What an improvement - looks great!
Oh so gorgeous! Love your living room!
That new colour is gorgeous!! I love it! It really looks beautiful, well done.
It's GORGEOUS! It does look like a totally different room and you're right, white trim makes a huge difference.
(Thanks for that judges link, BTW. I am SO RELIEVED to have DATA about them.)
Looks gorgeous! Here's to cold days ahead so you can snuggle in front of that beautiful fireplace.
OMG so completely beautiful. Love it!
Oooooo. I lurve it! Looks so much better. I'm excited to see what you guys do next!
