Maybe we should paint a room....




That's how this started. We were going to paint one room - the great room. That turned into, well, we should probably do the entry too....which spilled over into....where do we stop and start since the walls are high? Let's just go all the way up the stairs. Well, might as well do the second floor, now. Uh-oh. Will the kitchen look weird now? And then I saw faux painting. So we decided to do that in the kitchen. Ahh....but wouldn't the main room look nice with a faux glaze? And, well, now you know....if you give a lady a paint brush (budget) for one room, you end up with an entire house project involving retexturizing walls, faux paint and a stained fireplace. Oh, and the dining room may end up with a painted ceiling. Stay tuned!

We are on day 3 of 10-12. It's not comfortable, but I know (hope!) it will all be worth it. In case you are interested, the company we are using is www.itsmagnifico.com. The crew has been super professional and efficient. Great news when dealing with contractors!
