i was pretty ambitious yesterday. i painted the upstairs hallway in the morning. it went fairly quickly though it needed two coats to cover the ugly mustard yellow that the previous owners left.
when i was finished with that, i decided to tackle the kitchen as well since i was done with the hallway by 10. this was much more labor intensive. with the windows, doorways, cabinets and tile, i had a lot of taping and cutting in to do. the kitchen was like a dark pumpkin color so it took 2 heavy coats to cover it. the people that painted the kitchen before me were very sloppy. i also noticed that the kitchen had been at different times a forest green color and a hot pink color. weird color choices!
anyway…i’m happy to have those two spots painted. i need to paint the formal living room, thomas’ room and the downstairs bathroom (which is tiny) and then i’m done with the house!
