My Honey Do Project

Last Sunday, Layne and I selected paint colors for our living room and kitchen. When I was let go on Wednesday, I was desperate for something to keep my hands busy. Painting was the perfect project. It took FOREVER with all of our cut-ins, and a second coat was a definite must. But now, I'm proud to say it is done and it looks great. Before, our entire kitchen was white. The kitchen was still beautiful, but now, it looks amazing. The color really makes our cabinets and wood floors stand out. It's hard to get a good picture of the color on camera, but this was the best I could get. The color is called Downing Straw, and Layne and I are both really pleased with it. Especially Layne, since he got out of majority of the work.

My family is coming in town for Labor Day (a mix of Aunts, Uncles, Parents, siblings, and cousins) and my goal is to finish the living room before they get here. Three walls will be painted a color called dapper tan, and the fourth is called cajun red. I can't wait for you to see it!
