The house is coming along. Our living room just got a new coat of paint. It was green when we moved in and now it's a greyish blue color. Brett and a good friend of his painted it. I love the difference it has made. All the wood looks so much better and even the tile around the fireplace which I'm not a huge fan of doesn't look as bad to me anymore.
The color on the walls is called Grey Horse from Benjamin Moore. This room is attached to our dining room and kitchen so it had to look good with everything. It took me awhile to find the right color and this one was just what I had in my head. We painted the entry way a shade lighter than this one even though it looks much lighter than this. The rug is from Overstock. It looks tiny in the room now but I'll have to see how it looks with couches and everything. Now we just need furniture!
Other than the living room, C's room is done but we are still in the middle of painting A's room. So they are bunking together for awhile. Our room just got painted also so we will give it a few days to air our before we put it all together. I can't wait to have the rooms done. Slowly but surely we'll get there.

You are right, that does look much better. Good choice. Did you know you can get paint with low VOCs, it's much less toxic & airs out quicker than regular paint. We used it for Maeva's room. We just picked the color we wanted & they mixed in a a low VOC paint can. Just thought I'd tell ya that incase you didn't know. Your house looks so nice. I want a tour! It must be a dream to not have to haul grocerys up a bunch of stairs :)
ReplyDeleteLookin good!!! I love painting!
ReplyDeleteI love it! You have an eye for color- will you come help me with my house whenever I get one? :)
ReplyDeleteSo cute. I love the color. Can't wait to see the rest of the rooms.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rhiannon, I actually have been using a paint that has no VOC's in all our bedrooms. The smell is so much better than usual paint!
ReplyDeleteNo VOS's! That is awesome! I didn't know you could get it with NO VOC's. I will have to try that whenever the next time I paint is.
