Finished at last


Finished at last. Above is my living room. It is a little dark, but it was hard to work with the black leather couches that were given to us for our wedding, We got new curtains and added the new comfy chair to the room. I think that the new curtains make it a little more homey. :) But, nothing compares to the beautiful kitchen below. Ben and I painted it together, making that one of our first home project together. It was so fun to accomplish all of this together. We felt so productive and capable. P.S. Home Depot rules. Not only can you get actual paint samples to put on your wall to test out, but you can by paint with primer already in it. How amazing. It saves you one coat of paint, ends up costing less, and because you're able to bring home actual mini cans of paint for testing you get the color you really want. :) Our first painting experience was
delightful.

  2. I am so happy. Thank you for the compliments. I wish I could do more with the living room, but until the day comes where we can afford to buy the furniture we really want, we'll have to work with what we got. ;)
