My Living and Dining Room Reveal: A Welcomed NEW Space

find a linky party

the country border

we live in a townhouse and i really like it

we live near our school and church

i still have a great deal of painting to do yet down the hallway and in other bedrooms

this is real life baby

the process began

we moved half and then sanded and primed the rest and had to paint over it

sand down the paper as much as possible to lessen the seams and be sure loose are removed and then prime the area to be painted

holy cow

i wanted a grey

i went back and forth…

i landed on a color called intellectual grey by sherwin williams

the color is fantastic

i love the new look…the color is so inviting and my new space is so c y

my living and dining room reveal: a welcomed new space

november 7

the before pictures were ok…don't get me wrong

i love my space! it is open and perfectly suits our family

that used to be

we rent currently

how blessed are we

i am so thankful

that being said

accomplishing a task that has been burdening me

here are some before pictures of my living room and dining room. the rooms are open so the makeover was on both rooms 🙂

no staging on these pictures

it was even worse than i thought it would be

it was stuck right onto the original wall and it wouldn't budge

it was a nightmare

i hated to do that

maybe i should have hired someone 😉

you paint over wallpaper though…bob vila says so

then add paint

it is magic

it was a mess

i wrestled

silver fox

i am so happy

here are some pictures of the after…i am really loving the new look

are you looking to start a new project

paint a room

i promise all the work will be worth it in the end 😉
