Laboring on labor day

This is the living room before the primer, paint, etc....notice all the junk sitting around. We were living in the center of the room with NO room. This has went on for about 3 months now.
Then the primer went on....hubby jokingly said...lets leave it white...Now I have had white walls for years and I HATED it.. I have want rich warm walls now forever!
and after hours of work, painting, cleaning (ever clean drywall dust? uuuuggghhhhh), we have color!!!!! I absolutely love it! The trim is not up yet and nothing on the walls, but the color is up!! I am sooooooooo happy!!!!!

I too had white walls for years and hated it. It must be a guy thing because I had to fight to get a darker color. I love the color you have now.

I too am a color person! White is not allowed on my walls. Are you having white trim. That'll make your colored walls really pop!!! How pretty it is!!! I'm happy for you.

After a few days I am still thrilled with the color choice. It is hard to tell from the picture but the trim we have up is white. The trim going around windows and doors will also be white.

Beverly, Your walls look wonderful! They are so warm and rich looking, I love a golden color on walls, it is my favorite by far. It is like sunshine 24/7 and what could be better?! I am so happy for you! Hugs, Cindy S.

Love the color on the walls. Great work. I know it's a drag to do the home improvement stuff, but isn't it nice to sit back and enjoy it when you are finished?

I have been sitting there in disbelief that those walls are finally done...all but trim anyway
