DURING THE TRANSFORMATION
Dec. 26: While the family was in town they helped me decide on a color for the craft room/ office since it was the only one that was not planned. I wanted a purple color that would have the same feel as the living room since that was also the color of the hallway that leads to this room. We ended up choosing Behr Orchid Kiss. It was on the border of being too pink, but I thought that it might not be bad to open up a smaller space.
Dec. 29: There was a burst of energy and every ceiling that wasn't finished on the top floor was finished so that nothing would be able to hender me if I wanted to begin painting any room.. it did leave no room for making an excuse. Since Savannah was still there she helped up put the first coat on the walls.
Jan. 6: When we got home from work it was decided that the momentum of home improvements needed to pick back up we didn't want it to turn out as a house constantly "in progress." I rolled the walls while Micah began on edging by the ceiling and the second coat was almost complete, but then just like everything else we ran out of paint.
Jan. 8: Without waiting too long to get pack on the project Micah bought paint and we completed the room with much hesitation about the color. To me it doesn't look exactly like the paint swatch, but over the weeks it has grown on me. Plus I do think that we are going to do a thick horizontal stripe around the entire room of the sweet rhapsody blue from the bedroom to add a little more interest.
As of right now this is a laundry room for our work clothes, but it is starting to gather crafting supplies so I am going to need storage sooner rather than later.
