A Little Update & and Lot of Stress











The latest (not the greatest) of what is going on. In short - I decided to go with the painters the contractor suggested. I was supposed to get skim coated walls and then paint the colors of my choice. There was a color mishap - my fault - sort of. But the walls are not skim coated and are all patchy and irregular. It was one of those situation where you are so angry/frustrated/stressed that you can't see straight. I still have not resolved it. We will see what happens.
FYI - The color that looks pinkish/brown is NOT the color I wanted. I picked a dark color called October Bronze and a lighter color calleded Honey Pot. I wanted the living room and hall to be Honey Pot, but when I saw how it looked in the kitchen I thought it was too dark for the halls and living room coupled with the Oct Bronze so I called the paint store and asked them to lighten the honey pot, but they lightened the Oct Bronze instead and now it looks pinkish/orange-ish/brown. On a positive note - I do like the color of the bathroom. I wasn't sure but I do like it. Oh - the white color in the living rooom is called Cowslip and that is the baby's room.

  1. YEA! ok- so I'm on the red eye and I'm beating up the color correcter at the paint store STAT!
    I really dig what you've done so far, the colors all look pretty. Are you going to have them redo the pinkish/orangish/brown? PS~ Very clever with your multiple colours for this blog! ;-) Props.
