...still ended up with chalky shoe prints up the stairs from my dear husband.
Another March Break project was to paint the kitchen - I did the ceiling, primed, and did 2 coats of paint, then the trim. It was a big job, but I like how bright and airy the kitchen looks now, and a lot cleaner too. Kitchen before - I didn't mind the medium greige colour, but it needed an update Also pre-grout work! First step was to patch all the uneven walls - Matt did that Also a lot of sanding...I took preventative measures to minimize the mess... ...still ended up with chalky shoe prints up the stairs from my dear husband. View from the ground after the walls were primed and ceiling was painted (ohhhh my back!) Lucky we have so many drop sheets to cover everything 2 coats done, now for the trim! Took off the tape to reveal that the last painters were not too careful with NOT painting the trim... All done - much brighter entryway The cupboards need some updating - they are starting to yellow which really stands out now that the trim is whiter, and everything is cleaner. Also still have to do a bit of decor, of course.
