Paints

Here are some pictures to see what has been happening. After the disasterous first coat of "refresh" on the living room walls, we knew there needed to rethink the colors. We ended up changing the color for the kitchen and dining room into the living room and got a gallon of dover white and diluted the "refresh" color, and put it on three walls of the dining room and kitchen, the fourth wall will be a darker blue-green. This actually was a good thing in the end. We weren't originally going to be getting the counter top with the cabinets we are being given, but the owners decided to replace it anyways, therefore letting us have it. Its a Foresty green marble look. The original "plymouth green" that was going to cover the kitchen didn't match it at all.

Here is the first coat of plymouth green in the living room. We are also painting the trim white.
This is an inaccurate despiction of the brightness of the "refresh"that has since been painted over.



This is a little better. It really doesn't match the fireplace.


The flash didn't go off, but here is with the stairway in "plymouth green".



Here is the diluted "refresh" and I am very pleased with the results. You can also see the new window to the right.


Once the paint is all dry in here, up go the cabinets and the floor will be put in. We are getting there!!!!!!!!!1
