Fun with paint

This has been my project since last weekend.

I know I should have already finished this fairly simple task but...

with parents visiting last weekend, a husband in Vegas this week

and taking care of two little ones all day, I do what I can.

I thought I would share some before and after photos

of my formal dining room. I still have a lot to do in this room...

1. Chang the chandelier to a bronze-y one with pretty,dangly prisms.

2. Dining chairs will get slipcovers in a white or cream with a pretty gathered skirt/hem.

And

3. I am going to attempt to refinish my floor clock in a pretty,light blue or green color

and then sand it's edges to give it a "shabby" look.

OK, check out my before and after photos!

{I got this wall done but I wasn't happy with the color.Too dark!}

{The wall on the right is the right color. Lunden left her mark}

{You can see how dark the color was. Icky!}

{No more "L". Sorry Lunden! }

{The color turned out awesome. It's called Brown Tee pee by Behr}

{I'm really happy with the outcome}

What do you think?

Now, I need to hang up all my fun stuff on the walls!
