Since the move, MC and I have been HARD at work trying to cover up the previous owner's obsession (and I do mean obsession) with the color green. I attacked the exterior of the house, painting our shutters black and our door a deep burnt red color called Pomegranite, while MC tackled the BEAST known as the office. We chose a nice soft gray-blue and and soft satin black for the built-in bookshelves. This room is going to be awesome when its done...if its ever done. Its a trim/detailing NiGhTmArE!
BEFORE: Not the best photo, but this is the front of the home with the bright green Shutters.
AFTER: Our new black shutters and Pomegranite Door. Love it! I can't wait until we can refresh the stucco, trim and garage color. Nothing like a new coat of paint!
BEFORE: This pic was taken pre-move in. The green on the walls really made the room dark and dungeony. What you can't see is the dirty yellow ceiling.
AFTER: Its still obviously a work in progress, but I can't wait for the final result. It was really ballsy to paint the built-ins, but we are really happy with the result, so far!
That's all for now.
Meow! (BYE!)
