This photo set is sort of the "in between" shots before the bulk of the main floor got painted. Unfortunately, Pierre didn't take any "after painting" photos, so the photos I have will be with a bunch of things already moved into the house. Those will be coming soon. Maybe later this week.
Pierre was able to get a large amount of cardboard boxes inexpensively to protect the floors, so he spent some time putting those down and taping them.
Angie spent some time looking into paints as far as quality vs price, and she ended up choosing Benjamin Moore which were also on sale. I didn't actually do any of the painting, so I can't compare it to the Behr (which I really like), but as far as I can tell it's just as good quality.
The upstairs is not quite paint ready, but the floors were protected in the meantime.
There were a few last minute little bits to sand on the living room ceiling.
PRIMER!
I think this is the first coat of white on the ceiling.
White ceiling in the office! Remember how yellowed it was?
Leave your paint colour guesses in the comments!
I'm thinking a greige, not sure on the hue though...
ReplyDeleteYou're partially correct. The trim is all a sort of grey taupe.
DeleteEven just with the primer, I can hardly believe that it's the same place as the first photos you posted... what a difference! beautiful work as always :) Looking forward to the final reveal
ReplyDeletelooks amazing, you've come such a long way! I'll guess a blue for the color? anything has to be better than old smoke stained yellow right? Cheers! Anya
