Good-bye to the Horrible, Terrible Pink Paint

So, the Fall Open House is over,

just over,

like 14 hours over

and

I have always hated

that

horrible, terrible pink paint. 

 

I picked it out,

it was supposed to be a lovely shade of beige

soon 12 years ago

when the addition was built.

 

I should have repainted it right away.

But, I didn't.

 

For almost 12 years I have seriously disliked the color of that room.

 

Why did I wait so long to repaint?

While all my décor was scattered everywhere,

I decided it was time to paint!

I mean, why put it back just to move it again.

Perfect Timing.

See that pink paint on the right side?

You see, it is a big job.

Starts at the kitchen, through the family room

up the stairs

and

into my paint room.

 

And JWS...he hates things tore up.

 

So, I am painting a section and putting it back.

The things I do to keep that man calm.

The kitchen was finished yesterday

Part of the family room is done...

and

I ran out of paint.

 

So,

I am off to the paint store before work today

so I can make more progress tonight!

This was a before

and

yes, I painted over that hand-painted border.

Am I going to replace it?

 

I don't think so,

I am liking the clean, uncluttered look!

And

LOVING

every inch of pink that disappears!
