Tackling fear of color...on a big wall

 

 

Here's two of the only before shots I had... (my clowns,an everyday

occurrence...)

From beginning to end...3 1/2 hours later  using a medium size brush...hey it was now or before I lost my nerve & I didn't need to go back to the home depot for a bigger one because I would have second guessed myself for the hundredth time...little brush stood up to the job!

 

Darker colors such as this chocolaty one we choose can be nail biting intimidating for me. All it took was a small section and I was relieved to see it bring out the deep wood colors from both ceiling & flooring. Whew!

PLUS it's an exterior paint which should help with the kids going to and from.(We'll see?)

 

Middle picture looks darker than it is...

 

And yes the kids repel from the balcony because we are cool like that...not. My dh needs to finish the railing and cut the post down also. Now that I got the wall painted maybe he'll get the hint...(hint hint..honey);0)

So does it make you want to eat some chocolate?

Now for the fun part...agreeing on light fixtures. This will be fun, as I've already returned two sets...but hey that's another tackle!
