productivity to the max

« »

After spending all day with our three families and eating two thanksgiving meals, David and I headed back home for a long weekend of home renovation. The living room and dining room are getting so close to being done that they make me pee my pants a little each time I walk downstairs.

The ceilings are a little streaky but they won’t be after a little touch up work. Can you spot the little Mojie? He is hiding.

Commence jealously, now.

    Beautiful! Your results look so amazing, it almost makes me want to buy a house and repaint all the walls, trim, and ceilings! Almost! :)

    That’s so pretty! I love the blend between a little bit modern and a lit bit classic (with the dining room set). Excellent job!

    Thanks, girls! I’m feeling a lot better about putting all that work into it, now that I can start to see the results.

    Here is a little hint, Mojito is in two of the pictures, he is hiding in a dark place, and the two pictures he is in are in the first five.

    All that labor and whining (combined) paid up rather too well don’t you think? This is amazing, the colors are so chic, but not too distant, just perfect; and everything works well together…love love love love it….

    It’s all so pretty! Definitely worth all that hard work, and I’m definitely jealous. Our place still looks like a frat house.

    BB, it’s Behr brand paint, the walls are called Milestone with a satin finish, and the ceiling is called Gentle Rain in flat (I also used a satin finish of Gentle Rain on some walls). Then I used a high gloss white for all the doors and trim.

    Hi, I think I should just move in. You can still live there too, I guess, but I get the big bedroom.
