So I’ve been working on landscaping and gardening all summer pretty much – but I finally pulled myself away for the time being and am still trying to figure out what my next goal is. Tiling or finish painting? I have less than a month until I start school and things get too crazy for projects…so I need to decide which it’ll be by the end of the week and get going on it. My neighbor has graciously offered his wet saw and whatever else I need for tiling (plus his teaching services) but it’ll still be more expensive than painting and take longer to do…..

Ok, so I’ve actually made some progress on this one. Kitchen’s yellow and the conjoined livingroom and dining room are shades of brown/beige….Got my bedroom and bathroom a nice chestnut and guest bath a nice beachy blue/green. I liked the blue so much, I painted my laundry room the same.
Here’s the funny part – the first room I painted was the kitchen and I’ve tried sooo hard to like the yellow, but I finally admitted to myself that I hate it (much to the dismay of my daughter who thinks it’s the greatest thing ever). Anyway….the blue looks so good with the beige/brown that I decided to re-do the kitchen in a bluish gray. I think I’ll be happy with that :)
Then will only have the kids rooms (2), hallway up to the FROG, the FROG and the computer room left to paint. Almost there!
2 years in my first home and FINALLY conquering painting!! Got Bedroom done no problem, but picking colors for my conjoined kitchen, living room, dining room is the hardest thing ever (for me). Got kitchen done – Buttery yellow. Took several weeks to decide on a brownish color for living room, so that’s done now….just agonizing over dining room. Thinking a tomato red or on the opposite side of the spectrum – pewter-y light blue??? Any suggestions???
