Happy New Year! (12/31/11 House Update)

Happy New Year! Here’s a quick update on the house progress since I have church at 8AM tomorrow.

Today we worked on the living room of the house, cleaning up a little, taping, rolling and trimming the walls. We used a shade of green that is darker than the kitchen/dining room but still related. We wanted a natural transition from room to room but also to have the living room feel a little more comfortable, or “cozy” if you will.

The thin wall between the foyer and living room provided an interesting painting experience, but other than that everything went pretty smoothly. I need to do some research on a fast and easy way to get clean lines between walls and ceilings, because I don’t have the time or patience to do it the old fashioned way.

I’m not sure how much is on the agenda for tomorrow, between church and  Christmas with my parents (yes, it was only 7 days ago- seems much longer) our time in the house will be a little more limited. We’re also planning a Lowe’s run to get new cabinet knobs and possibly chandelier for the kitchen. All we’ll need then is our stainless steel appliances…
