Let the painting begin!!!!
So, I finally started back up on painting the house. We live in a lil trailer. It was made around...1976? As you can probably guess it needs a facelift to say the least. My in-laws actually own it and graciously let us stay there rent free, however, it does not meet my style requirements...not yet! I already revamped the master bathroom and it looks WORLDS BETTER! When I moved in with DH the bath tub/shower didn't even work and neither did the toilet. Now? New floor, new toilet, new shower head, paint, and a shower curtain later we have a cute fully functioning bathroom. Not to mention we stopped the leak in the wall between the master bath and master bed rooms (and replaced the wall and floor and carpet) so we no longer have an indoor mushroom patch. Yes, you read correctly, we had mushrooms growing IN OUR HOUSE. I was so mortified I cried. Leave it to DH to fix everything. :) Now I'm just doing cosmetic work and can't quite decide what color to paint our master bedroom. I kind of want a Mediterranean/Italiano vibe so I was thinking a tan/gold shade? I will be picking out colors this weekend. On my day off yesterday I managed to paint the little laundry area an off white and WOW what a difference it made!!!! The space looks cleaner and brighter and surprisingly much bigger. I can't wait to do the living room and kitchen...uggg the kitchen. My mother in law chose to put up wall paper. Now, I know wall paper can be cute, but it is NOT my taste or style. She chose off white wall paper with little apples all over it. I hate the wall paper. I can not wait to paint over it. Since my kitchen is done in lemons and limes, I was thinking a soft to springy yellow. Did I mention that in the 1970's it was super popular to put up that tacky wood paneling in trailer houses? I vomit every time I look at my own walls. LOL I will post a before and after pic of the laundry area soon. Hopefully master bed or kitchen follow SOON. LOL See ya later and may The Lord Bless you this day! :)
