yay!! The Living room is painted

Hello Beautiful bloggers.

 

I hope that you all are healthy and finding peace during this quarantine.

I am over it. 

I can't wait to get back to my lunch dates, thrift stores and everyday life.

 

We haven't had many sunny days here in Baltimore.

Grey and wet days really get to me after a while..

( I could never live in the pacific northwest)

so yesterday I created my own version of Sunshine.

 

 When life throws you gloomy days,  you make a rainbow!

 

 

It was so tall and beautiful..

and because I only had one cake pan,

it took me forever make. 

 

We shared that giant slice between 3 of us.

 

 

okay.. house time.

 

Last week I started working on the living room makeover checklist.

 

1. Strip the room and clean everything

2. fill the holes

3. sand the walls

4. Paint the walls

5. The fun part  -  put room together again.

 

This is an after patching and sanding photo.

 

That was one ugly color!

why didn't y'all tell me?

 

 

I ordered paint from Sherwin Williams and picked the color from the internet.

 curbside pickup is the shit!!!

 

The color is called silverpointe and when I first opened it,  it wasn't the color that I had pictured.  I was going for a green grey and this is more of a blue grey.

 

 

But once I finished a few walls I was incredibly happy for the brighter color. 

It's perfect. 

 

When I put the room back together,  changed some of the wall décor and I switched coffee tables.

I stole this old trunk from the porch so that I could use the other table as an end table.

 

I knew that it would be a perfect fit in between our new recliners.

Which I love btw.

 

( the cars on the ledge are  Paul's toys from when he was a kid)

 

So far things are coming together perfectly and  I love it!! 

I don't want to overload you with to many photos just yet..

The wood for the new ceiling is scheduled to be delivered later this week and you know that once it is installed I will be posting tons!!!  

 

 

It's time for me to unpause the television and get to watching my show.

Vanderpump Rules - tonight Beau is proposing to Stassi.  : )

 

I hope that you all are having a great week.

Praying that this virus fades away and we can all get back to living our best lives.

 

Stay safe.
