Paint... the Aftermath

Since you were so lovely and were curious about my solo painting adventures, I wanted to let you know how it all turned out! In 2.5 days, I painted 6 rooms (3 from a help of a friend).

This awesome decal is from an etsy store! I absolutely love it!!

Our dining area is BRIGHT yellow! Hello!



Our "beach themed" guest bath...

Racing stripe in the study! It goes ALL the way around the room!

Our bedroom is a calm grey

And lastly, our bathroom is LIME GREEN!

Aren't these just happy colors? The lady mixing our colors at Lowes scowled at me each time I handed over my paint chips but I think I converted her by the end.  She told me "you picked some nice colors." Yay! I hope you all like the results! We have a bit of touching up to do but I'm excited to start our new lives in this place!
