River ,'Jaynestown'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Did I share my pink colors here? Of course I totally wish they were named Blush and Bashful, but anyway here: [link]
they are in the pink section (duh) - colors "sweet pink" and "pink burst". Sweet for the 2 side walls and Burst for the wall behind the laundry machines.
Nice Msbelle. What are you doing with your pink fridge?
I am all at once amazed and appalled by that floor.
I am appalled that it does not make words.
still going to use it as a pantry in the kitchen. It is going to be a tight fit, but will go near the table.
I would spend hours staring at that floor, trying to find all the words.
I think I am going to paint the hallway that leads to upstairs. It doesn't need to be scraped or anything, and it's a fairly small space and it's just...dull.
It'll allow me to practice my painting techniques, I'll be able to do it in a couple of days, and it's a small, connecting space, so I can paint it a fairly dramatic color.
I'm thinking a nice clear, bright turquoise. I have picture frames and some small, round mirrors in my registry, and I would like to hang those up there.
My biggest debate now is should I paint the risers, also turquoise, or just repaint them in a clean white? The steps themselves are a golden hardwood, and I won't paint those, but the...backsplash? what would you call that? to the steps are painted a dingy, scuffed white.
As an owner of an older house, please seal/varnish/clearcoat before painting. Signed, wants to return my banisters to their original wood someday, but likely badly paintstained.
That's a good idea. ALL of our wood floors need resealed, but that won't happen this year.
The steps, that can.
Erin, my vote is for gilding the risers and stencilling them.
Because that's what I did. [link]
(I'd actually vote for a crisp white on the risers with an accent stencil in color of the hall.)
