Paint!!!!

Hope you don't mind...more unedited photos from my cell.

This is the living room.  It has only one coat so far.  I'm not liking the white silicon that separates the wall and fireplace.  Maybe clear will work, which means we need to scrape off the old silicon.  Work!  =P

It's not quite the same angle, but you can definitely see how dark the cabinets were before.  Uncle sprayed these ultra pure white.  We'll change out the counter in the near future.  We haven't painted the drawers and doors yet, but there's no rush in that.

There's no real before photo.  Imagine the white box and white cover not there.  Instead there were tubes hanging out.  We pushed in the area, so the washer/dryer wouldn't stick out into the walk way.  Saved about 10 inches of space.  I keep looking at this photo, and the window looks small.  I think to balance it out, I'll hang the curtains wider.

Formal Dining

Small Bedroom

These two are the same color.  We used temporary bulbs for light just in case they were accidently painted over.  I'll get the real lighting later.

This was the only photo I got of the trim.  I spent hours painting the trim for all the rooms.  Yikes!  I woke up one of the mornings with my hand all stiff.  Make sure to stretch!! 

I wish we took more shots with the good camera.  I know I'm terrible at uploading photos from there, so I figure phone shots are good enough.  No wide angle shots.  (much needed in the laundry room to get the full effect)

P.S. Yes, we have bathrooms.  They are still in the works.  We want to replace the counters on all of them, but I think we'll do it month by month.  However, toilets will be replaced this weekend!  We also replaced the shower/tub faucets that I forgot to photograph.  They pretty much look like this though.  Wow!  It retails for over $250.  It was $100 off at Home Depot.  Score!

Hope you enjoyed the house tour!
