First Finished Project...Almost

Dane and I have been hard at work on the house the past few weeks.  Dane ripped out the entire bathroom like I've said in a previous post and we painted the entire front living room.  The living room only has ONE window (so annoying but true) so without a lot of natural light the room can not handle a dark color.  You can't tell in the below picture but the color on the walls when we moved in was a dark tan color and just didn't look good.

Before

(I think the flash was on because the color was actually MUCH darker)

After

(This is a light greyish blue)

We are not 100% done with the living room painting yet, we still have to redo all of the trim work because the previous owners were REALLY bad painters.  I will say that even though the textured plaster was such a pain in the "you know what" to paint, it turned out well and we absolutely love the new lighter feel of the room.  Once we get all the trim finished we can get the drapes off the floor and maybe hang a few pictures so that our house starts looking like a home FINALLY :)

Once this room is done we are moving into the dining room, hopefully the kitchen, and when Dane finishes the floors and walls in the bathroom we will move into the downstairs bath to get everything painted different colors (these people REALLY liked bold colors).  THEN once we finish the downstairs we will move up and focus on the nursery...don't worry I've already got a plan for that room but it will be a surprise for a little later :)
