Painting fever, that is.
I love how the dining chairs came out....I chose a great color, and since the paint is semi-gloss, I've decided to do my downstairs bathroom, and hallway trim that color. But, of course it doesn't match the paint colors in there, so I have to repaint the walls too.
The trim is the greige color, so I'm painting the walls a very light silvery grey. (by the way, how do you spell grey? G R E Y or G R A Y? I've always liked grey)
So, I'll be spending my three day weekend painting. I woke up early again this morning to get started.
I have book group tonight, and the chosen book is Devil in the White City. Not liking it. In fact, I'm only about half way through. I should spend the day finishing it, but I'd rather paint. Too many architectural details for me. I like the chapters about the serial killer, but the World's Fair chapters put me right to sleep! Any of you read it?
First, when you finish painting in your house, come on down and see what you can do with mine :)
ReplyDeleteRead The Devil In the White City several years ago-when it came out actually-and remember enjoying it, maybe because I'd lived in Chicago for a while.
Please post pictures! I am a

I loved that book; I loved learning about how they put that fair together, and also about the serial killer.
I got a painting estimate and I guess we're going forward. But I do have color anxiety.
I never get color anxiety. I probably should once in a while.

ReplyDeleteIt's the more upbeat, cheerful "gray" for me (and my hair). "Grey" is just a bit more dour and sad.
