Painting the First Floor …
Posted on | June 20, 2010 | No Comments
I haven’t been sewing as much lately, because we’ve been working on quite a few projects around the house. I HAD to finish them before this weekend, because we were hosting our monthly potluck, and I didn’t want the house to be a construction zone with paint fumes.
I painted the living room (Sherwin Williams Softened Green) and the dining room (Sherwin Williams Dorian Gray and Extra White).

We had a custom-built bookcase installed in the living room, along with crown molding.

Here is the dining room, looking into the kitchen and living room. I painted the one short wall of the dining room in the green shade to match the living room. After I finish painting the bookcase and trim, my next painting project will be the kitchen.

We still have to have the crown molding installed in the dining room:


The dining room houses my antique sewing machine. It works, but it’s not too practical to use, so I just use it for decoration:

And we built (with some family help) a pergola in our backyard to grow hops. We plan on putting pavers underneath it, for a nice shaded area in our very bright backyard.
