Now that the fumes have cleared...

I did so much painting the bedroom and hall bath on Wednesday, I actually fumed us out of the bedroom for a day. I spent the night on the couch with Dash liberally applying his own version of accupressure (more like accucrusher). Aaron spent the night on the office futon, which actually allowed him to catch some Z's.

I must apologize for the lack of "before" pictures. When I finally get up the motivation to get things done, I don't dare stop for fear I'll find some reason not to do it. I did scrounge up some older pictures that should give you an idea of the previous wall colors.

The hall bathroom is now just some trim paint shy of being completed. The original color was my own combo of some leftover white paint and leftover "Stampede" from the livingroom. The only picture I could find that showed it was this one of Dash being a nosey nuggins, back when we'd just moved in. The toilet was in two parts and the door frame wasn't finished, which is why Dash could barge in whenever he wanted.


The hall bathroom is now the same color as the master bathroom - "Gravel". Very clean, but very bland. Aaron actually said he liked this color better than my homemade creation. Insert pouty face here.

Here is the bedroom's original color - "Blue Oasis". It is darker than the picture shows and was meant to be soothing and calm. It ended up more annoying because the shade of blue did not go well with any of our blue bedding.


The bedroom is now painted with a color called "Secret Passage". Yeah, I know... bedroom, secret passage, insert innuendo here. It is one shade lighter than the color, "Flagstone", that we painted the office, which I've always loved.

MUCH better colors. And I know what you mean about not daring to stop. Inertia is a powerful thing!
