There's hardly a home improvement that makes me feel more accomplished in a very short amount of time than painting. And, in the dollhouse world, that is no exception! And, after the recent bathroom flooring fail, I decided to do something reasonably simple that produces a big bang! Here's the outcome of the rest of the painting!
The second floor kid room is now in color!
I just love the colors! One of our kiddos had almost exactly these colors in her room when she was a little one. They're much like the colors on her Glo Worm:
I always loved the color combo, so that's what inspired this room.
And, from the previously mentioned collection of paints at Target, the blue on the walls is called, "Sky."
Moving on, let's go upstairs! Here's what will be the girl's room:
I know, I know!! Again with the green! And, it worked! Go, me! I mixed "White" (naming that is just funny, but there are certainly different whites in paint!) and "Light Lime" to get just the right hue. Picture it with white flooring and fairy lights!
To the left, we cross into the top of the stairwell:
I used the "Driftwood" color that I rejected for the Master Bedroom. It's perfect between two, bright colors! Aaron also cut the divider wall for me to have just a little half wall. I knew I didn't want to close in that space with a full divider, and the half wall gives the space as a whole a little character.
Keep shuffling to the right to feast your eyes on the craft room!!
Holy yum, I LOVE THIS COLOR! It's called, "Heather," and it's perfectly perfect for this space! It's going to look so cool when there are "craft projects" and paintings in there!
Here's the overall view:
I have doors for the bedrooms to paint and a number of pieces to cut for baseboards and crown moldings. I've also asked Aaron to review and tell me (interpret as: I don't feel like reading and figuring out) the instructions for the stair railings and banisters. I need to build and install those before dealing with the flooring on both the second and third floors. I do have some carpet options for the bedrooms, though, so I can make good progress in those rooms.
It's just so cozy!! Stay tuned for the update on what trim I can take care of at this point ...!
We were so busy looking at the outside when I was there, I didn't think to look at the inside. The paint job looks fabulous and I really like all of your colors. I think I need to get a dollhouse just to paint the walls!!!
ReplyDeleteI think you are right. Of all people, you need a number of walls to paint. Always. :)
DeleteI don't know why it says unknown. It knows good and well that it is me.....
