Kitchen, day 1: hijacked, hijinks!
May 31, 2005
Since Matt doesn't seem to be using this journal at the moment (*wink*wink*) I thought I'd hijack it for a bit. We're renovating our kitchen this summer. Yesterday I bought paint; today I started by painting the ceiling. Erin helped too. It only took a couple hours and about a half gallon of Behr's "Pot of Cream" flat paint. The main result so far is that the walls look absolutely horrible next to that nice clean coat. However I did manage to get all the excess paint on my body rather than our stove, refrigerator, and dishes.
A few photos of this first stage (I forgot to take "before" pics and, by the nature of "before" pics, it's now too late):
Those are our colors.
Unfortunately these photos neither do justice to how nice the ceiling looks now nor how bad, in comparison, the dirty walls look. Hopefully future pics will help. A few more in the new gallery directory. Stay tuned!
