Finally!!

BEFORE
The walls look super white in this pic for some reason, but they were actually a very light grayish.


AFTER
I got this table on clearance a few weeks ago!
It can expand to a 5' square when we have guests over. After 3 long days, I'm finally done painting our living room. I must be the slowest painter in the world, right? I don't think its supposed to take that long. I'm really happy with it though! The room feels so much more warm and inviting! I had to buy 4 different samples until I found the right color. Its called Sisal by Ralph Lauren (at Home Depot).

It looks beautiful, Ash. I love the color. I also like your new table. And the pears on the table. You did a great job.

Yes, Ash- it looks great. And I like your new table too. Good job- I've never painted a wall before.

I love it Ash. Well, you know what a big fan of paint I am. The rooms do look so much warmer. I like the table too. And bonus that it expands too. Good job! Does it make you want to paint other rooms?

Ashley said...

Ooo! It looks so warm and cozy! I also love your new table, and your wall arrangements, and your beautiful home...! I'm getting the itch to paint something in my house now.

It looks great! I love the color. Paint makes such difference. One day we'll live in a house and be able to paint- until then I'll just pretend my walls are beautiful colors instead of stark white.
