Before (the WORST before picture EVER)
Don't be misguided by the title, though we try to keep our debt to a minimum, I'm talking about the red wall in our house!!! We finally painted it! I loved it when we first moved in 3 years ago... but as of late I hated it!!! My mom would always say she'd come over and help me paint it, but I never could decide on a color and I semi-dread painting. But one evening Bobby and I were at The 'Po (dad's name for Home Depot) and I was browsing the paint area and I begged Bobby to help me paint! I found a few paint chips I liked and took them home and taped them on the wall... a few days later I decided Creamy Mushroom it would be! And not only did I want the red wall gone but all the white walls too. So we geared up, got all the necessary things (Bobby got a fancy painter thingy) and prepared to paint. Kim and Justin came over to help us tape and prep, then the next day I came home Bobby had all the walls started!! I was so happily surprised... so i got to work doing the edges and detail-y things. And viola! A few days later we had a whole new house!!! IT looks AMAZING! Bobby keeps saying how its the best color he's ever seen, and it cracks me up. I love it too. Its so nice not having white(dirty) walls. I haven't finished hanging everything back up, but I'm working on it(I'm having some creative block issues, ha) and I am like a weird kind of anal about stuff like that, like it took me SUCH a long time to decide a color and then I picked one really quickly. If that makes sense, its a weird quirk. But needless to say it was a much needed sprucing to our home. I'm super happy and grateful for Bobby's hard work. I love it! (The color doesn't look that great in the picture, but I swear its beautiful! Come see!!!)
After (I'm working on my photography skills...)
