Painting

My dad came down late last night from Virginia to spend the weekend with us. My mom is in Florida for the summer with my nephew, Grayson, so Dad came by himself. Vince had to work today, so Dad & I went to Lowe's & got some paint for the hallway & the guest bathroom. I decided on a tan color for the hall and a light ice blue for the bathroom. It took us a while to tape off the rooms & remove any paintings, hardware, towel holders, etc. The painting itself didn't take that long. We finished both rooms today & got the stuff hung back up after it dried.

I would like to paint my huge den/kitchen/dining room, but they're all so joined together & I can't decide on what color I want. Plus it will involve more than just some hardware. I have lots of furniture in these rooms. It will probably take two huge rolls of tape just to tape it off. So when I'm in the mood to take a day just to prep the rooms & then a day to paint them, I'll try to decide on a color.

I also would like to paint my bedroom but have no idea what color scheme I want to go with. I'll have to wait until something just strikes me.

Thanks to dad for helping me get it all done before Vince gets home!
