We are finished painting the walls and the countertops! This picture shows a little bit of the tan colored wall, a bit of the white wall we were covering up and the blue countertops. (In my defense, when we built the house and I chose these countertops, I was choosing the lesser of several evils. There was nothing I liked.)
The countertop paint smelled horrible, but if it works and stays on, I'll forgive it. It certainly looks better. In fact, it looks like chocolate, which isn't what I was going for (I wanted black, but it wasn't available in the countertop paint!), but I like it. Hopefully, it won't make me crave chocolate more than I already do. (Is that even possible?) In this picture, it's still wet looking and there's still painting tape up and the outlet covers aren't on. I didn't do any panoramic shots of the whole room, because it is a total mess.
Anyway, we're done and just need to decide what to do about the floor. It's another one of those builder choices where I didn't like any of them. 11 years later, I could not hate it more. As you can tell, I left the wallpaper border up. I kind of wanted to take it down, but kind of didn't want to work that hard, so I left it up. It's kind of country, but hey, we are too. (Also lazy.)
Anyway,
we're done!
Ahh.

Looks good to me! Too bad Willy Wonka doesn't make the paint. :o)
