Today I am linking up with Becky From Choose happy for her Currently linkup! 

Enjoying.... I am currently enjoying my newly painted bathroom and front door! The bathroom is a mint green color (which Brenden hates), and we painted the dark brown door and door trim white! I am so happy that we are finally able to take the time and start painting our house! We moved in the week of Thanksgiving and with all of the holidays we wanted to hold of and start working on the house after all the madness settled down! Well that time has finally come and I am LOVING the work that we have done so far! Also with the front door it was dark brown and we painted it white, we wanted to change all the doors and the baseboards in the house to white to brighten up the house so we are starting to slowly get everything done. 



Watching.... Tonight I am watching the season finale of The Walking Dead! I have tried to stay off of social media all last night and tonight so I won't accidently see any spoilers about what happened. I can't believe that this season is over. 

Decorating.... The whole house! We are trying to get our man cave/ basement decorated, we want it to me a military/ U.S.A. theme. I still haven't found anything to really go in there yet. The ceiling was painted two different colors (I honestly think that the previous owner thought they used the same paint but it wasn't). So we painted it white and the dark brown paneling and walls all a light cream/tan color.





Wanting.... THE BEACH! We leave for Florida on Thursday and I cannot wait! It really needs to hurry up! I have no clothes to bring with me so tonight we are going shopping! YAY!

Starting To Paint! Woohoo!!

Wednesday, March 18, 2015

Today we have a friend painting our living room, entry way, office and upstairs hallway, a light gray, while we are at work! Woohoo!! :) Brenden and I really wanted to paint the house on our own but with us working from 8am-5pm (but we never really get done and get home until 8 or 9 normally) and we work Monday through Saturday so the only day we would be able to paint is Sunday and we cannot get a whole house painted in just one day a week, that would take forever!! So we keep getting updated pictures of how the painting is going so I figured I would share them with you until I show you the finished rooms!

Hallway

Office

Entryway/ living room 




Entryway

After the painting is done in these four rooms we are going to paint the master bedroom and bathroom a teal color, paint the door molding, paint or get new doors for the rooms in the upstairs hallway, tear out the carpet and stain and finish the hardwood floors (that are underneath the carpet) a dark brown. Then we want to get new baseboards.

So we have a lot to do still but we are so excited to finally be able to get things done now that the holidays are over and the weather is getting better!
 
Oh! I forgot to mention, the 5 gallon bucket of gray paint we used only cost $6 and some change because Brenden and I had a few gift cards from Christmas that we didn't use yet! That truly made the paint sooo much better! Haha. (Also if your wondering why I purchased so much paint that is because we think we are going to paint most of the upstairs with that color gray and we figured we would have to do multiple coats, however right now it looks good with just one coat of paint?!)
