Painting and More Painting. Lots of Painting. And Love.

Yes, pretty soon we will run out of things to paint and then we'll call 'er done! But for now we are still painting. For the past couple of weeks,we were working on the board and batten on what I now call 'the purple room' and it is finished.  Janice did nearly all the painting in there and this morning I painted the trim.

Here is the finished product:






Isn't it swell?!  I can't wait to do the decorating part.

Also, while I monkeyed around, Princie has been working on painting the bed.  Here are a few pictures of the bed project:





I started playing with my phone camera and this is one of the cool pics I took:


And even more camera fun:


I love taking pictures while other people work1  As a side note: Princie, there is now a gallon of Killz over at the house!

And then this weekend I nearly finished the hall bathroom.  I started painting the cabinetry and then decided to paint a stripe around the room while I was waiting for the first coat to dry.  Here it is taped off with one coat:





And after the tape was removed:




Then I painted the second coat on the vanity and thought it looked pretty good and probably was finished. While that was drying I did the trim in this little bathroom.  It didn't take long. I realized that I could see better if there were some better light in there and decided to finish the light installation:




It's the same light we put in the master bath, and once I turned it on it was bright enough to perform surgery in there.  It was also bright enough to see that I would need a third coat of paint on the cabinet so I proclaimed the work day over and went home.  

The other day when Princie was over, she styled my little green corner shelf for Valentine's Day.  Isn't it cute?


Love is a many splendid thing.
 
Happy Valentine's Day!

Love Vicki
