When I returned home from work yesterday, Ken had already started putting some things back in their original location. I couldn't believe the difference in our house just by painting!! Of course, I had to admit that Ken was right and painting the interior was the best first step to make. He loves it when he's right (it happens rarely).
Because we wanted the paint to completely dry, we didn't put too much back right away on Tuesday afternoon. The girls hated being displaced for another day, and I wasn't happy about not getting my office back. Oh well, better safe than sorry. Luckily, our temperatures have still been warm and dry, so we had the perfect weather for getting this done in Autumn - go figure!
Look!! No more crack in the ceiling and wall!!
The holes from the sofa are fixed and the paint looks great!
Oh! I can't get over how "clean" and "fresh" everything looks!
And pretty corners again!!!
Even this alcove looks perfect!!
By last night, we started moving everything back. Justin came back over to help with the furniture and suddenly we had our house back. Yes, I could not stand myself that my office was totally back to normal - well except I still have house and work filing to get done, but I can handle two piles of papers on my craft table rather than not being able to move about at all.
I have to clean the crystal before putting it back on display.
Everything is really bright!
Just a really great paint job!
The only drawback to having the interior look so good - we can now see exactly how hideous our floors are. Well, phase two looks like it will be moving onto replacing the tile and carpet....
