So after two weeks of lounging around reading books, the time has come to tackle the entryway/mudroom.
|
This is what you see when you come into our house...there is a door on the left that goes into the kitchen, there is a twisty set of back stairs that goes to the master bedroom and straight ahead there is a room with a window and lots of wooden pegs to hang coats etc. |
|
It is kind of blah....and hasn't been painted for years... |
|
This is the little room in the back that has pegs all around for coats and boot trays on the floor...it gets really, really messy by times.
I picked out a golden yellow colour (Benjamin Moore's Chestertown Buff) and started painting today...then I ran out of paint and had to drive to the city (45 minutes each way) so now I'm back and I better get busy because some of the junk from the mudroom is now in my kitchen.... |
|
And all the coats are piled up in the den. I had a few photos from our trip to California enlarged and finally got a few other things framed so I'm hoping to get the painting done tonight and hopefully the pictures up and everything put away tomorrow. I really don't mind the actual painting but I hate sorting through stuff and having the house in disarray. |
I hate a mess too... but the end result is so worth it.
ReplyDeleteStick to it...it feels so good when it's done! {I love the coat couch.}
ReplyDeleteThe paint color sounds so pretty. I can't wait to see the "after" photos!
