go big or stay at home

Aug 6, 2018

I went big alright… I picked a color on a whim while buying another paint color that I’d chosen carefully. From the second they started mixing, I had that sneaking suspicion that I’d made a big ole’ mistake.

Now, there are only two rooms left to repaint after the gas fireplace soot incident, and I’m not sure what possessed me to pick this funky green color other than a momentary lapse of sanity. But I did. If I decide to sell the place, its summary description will definitely NOT say “painted in neutral colors to match any decor.” 

So put your sunglasses on and get ready for the soot icky before photo — followed by the GO BIG after photo of my utility room.
