Another Coat of Paint. . . .

In the 7 years since we have lived in our house, the walls have been 5 different colors.  What can we say, we like change.  Here is what it looked like before we painted:

We were over this color combination and

ready for something more calming.

We used Behr Ultra from Home Depot.

Because it is paint primer-in-one it

covers so much better.

The color is French Silver.

Bye, Bye bold colors!  Hello serenity.

In the pic below we still have to finish below

the chair rail.

We have big plans for the fireplace.

We are going to paint all the stone white

and distress the mantle using Peppercorn

basecoat with Wisteria top coat using

Caromal Colours textured basecoat.

We haven't tackled that one yet.

It goes on the list of future projects,

but near future at that.

I had seen this wall treatment done on

Vintage Revivals and I loved it.

We just got 1 x 3 boards and voila!

We are thinking of making this a wall of clocks since

we have a good start.

I love how it all turned out!  My husband is

such a fast painter and does all

the hard work like the trim and the tall

ceilings or I might never tackle such a project.
