We have big dreams for our house. The wish list and the to-do list is quite lengthy. Partially expensive, partially not sure what we want exactly. Regardless, one way we are making our house "ours" is by painting. We can choose the colors. We don't have to worry about painting it back at the end of our apartment lease. It's fantastic! But, painting has more of a job than just making it ours. It can also freshen up existing paint.
And, that is where you find this post. In our lower living room (stay tuned for photos - it's almost finished!) we installed new wood trim that is also post worthy in itself. After staring at varying shades of white at Lowes, we went with "Ultra White" by Valspar. Clean and crisp.
Over the last few weeks, Z and I have been working to touch up trim, paint kick plates on steps, and put a fresh coat on existing trim. It's amazing how much more clean and crisp it looks now!
Take a look!
Painters tape on steps heading up to bedrooms preps for the upcoming work.
A fresh coat of paint is added to the steps.
Built in bookshelves in lower living room. No longer dingy, dark, and stained!
The last few days, I have worked on getting small things marked off of our list. Stay tuned - hope to share more soon!
