Painting!

The week we moved into our new house (July) we started painting the living room, kitchen, hallways, and our bedroom. I quickly finished the living room and bedroom but we ran into a few issues with the hallway and kitchen. The color we had picked for the hallway and kitchen was supposed to be a light brown, beige color but when we put it up on the walls it was peach! Bright peach. Our living room has forest green accent walls and it seriously looked like an 80s teal and peach wedding! We spent weeks then trying to find the right color, browns, greys, purple greys, etc. We finally decided on a brown that was what we originally tried for. After months of our dining room wall having test colors on it, we finally finished the halls and kitchen!! It is so nice to finally feel done with the painting even though we actually have two bathrooms and a bedroom to go, not to mention finishing the last bit of Emma's room. During fall break and right before I got really sick with the flu, we painted the top half of Emma's walls purple...her favorite color. The bottom half will stay white but needs a fresh coat and then a chair rail to separate the two. Even with that unfinished project, it feels complete for now...probably since it's not on display for everyone to see.
