A Fresh Novel Await Inward The Dining Room

I promise yous all had a wonderful Fourth of July!  We had a nail celebrating at multiple cookouts amongst friends, job solid unit of measurement together with lots of fireworks.  (or bang, bangs according to my 4 twelvemonth old)

In the middle of all the festive activities I did larn by to crush inward a spur of the 2d paradigm session, which ended upwards turning into to a greater extent than painting.  It's definietly truthful what they say, "one affair leads to the next."  It all started amongst me getting the brilliant thought to pigment our atrium doors the same Sherwin Williams Iron Ore that's on our front door together with mudroom doors.  Although, different the other spaces, I wasn't getting excited almost the terminate result.  I knew I loved the door color, but something but seemed off.  Something had to modify together with I knew it wasn't going to live the nighttime doors.  It was the walls, they looked horrible against the doors together with had to go.

Before I larn to all the pretty afterward pictures, allow me dorsum upwards together with remind yous what this infinite looked similar when nosotros kickoff bought our house.   The dining room had ane lonely window, the master builder pigment an absolutely no personality.

{sellers things}

As amongst all our job solid projects, nosotros saved until nosotros could afford to brand unopen to major updates.   We replaced the window amongst an atrium door, added crown molding, replaced all the baseboard together with cut molding, painted, replaced the lite fixture together with added board together with batten.   The doors lonely made a huge departure together with brought thence much to a greater extent than lite into the room, but I bring to confess... I never painted them.  They bring remained the master unfinished, dingy white for the by few years.  Add to that ii immature kids, many dingy hands together with all of a abrupt our doors no longer looked thence new.

As a reminder, here's what the room looked but a few days ago.

After I painted the doors, I got correct to paradigm over the greenish walls.  

(we are non adding shoe molding until nosotros refinish our hardwood floors)

This is what my blood brother calls "mind tape."  I've mentioned earlier that I bring no patience for prep work.  I similar to dive correct inward together with larn to the terminate result.  Ain't nobody got fourth dimension to tape!  Thankfully, I taste paradigm together with mean value I create a pretty darn adept task at it.  Usually, I pigment crown first, together with then walls, together with then trim, but this fourth dimension I but went directly to paradigm the walls.

Besides the park disorganized chaos, things were moving along pretty smoothly until this happened...

That would live the alone institute that I bring managed to proceed alive, which happens to live the institute that is from my grandmothers viewing.  It reminds me of her everyday together with it broke my catch to come across it inward pieces.  Thankfully, the institute survived together with the paradigm went on.

I absolutely LOVE how this infinite turned out together with cannot believe how much pigment completely changed the expression together with experience of this room.  It at nowadays brightened the infinite together with at nowadays the living room together with dining room menses thence much better.  I thought I liked the green, but I really, REALLY similar the novel color. 

As I was hanging this window (purchased from a co-worker who bought iii off Craiglist for $15.00!) my married adult man came upstairs together with said "I larn out yous lonely for v minutes together with yous start hanging to a greater extent than imitation windows on the wall!"  Men, they but don't understand.

Since I added the window, my rustic pallet frames got moved to the other side of the wall.

I'd honey to modify the lite fixture (again!) , but I'm resisting until nosotros renovate the kitchen.

I can't rave plenty almost this pigment color.  If yous are looking for a swell neutral I highly propose yous cheque out SW Accessible Beige, it's the perfect creamy gray.
