John and I spent several hours at our new house today. We painted most of one of the hallway walls, primarily to get a good look (bigger than the little tiny swatch they give you at the hardware store) at the color I bought yesterday. Now we have to let it dry before making a final decision on whether we like it. I think it will be fine; it's a very neutral tan color which should match anything. It beats the pink which we are covering! (No offense if you like pink, I just don't like it enough to have it covering as many of the walls of my house as it is currently covering!)
The other task we took on today was peeling the numerous hideous flower stickers off the sink in one of the bathrooms. Seriously, they were bad. Here's a "before" shot, and this was actually after I had peeled several off!
Okay, so "hideous" might be slightly too strong a word, and I like flowers as much as the next person, I just prefer the actual growing kind, and I prefer them outside. It took a while (some of the stickers had gotten somewhat dry and brittle and therefore came off in many small pieces), but all the flowers are now gone! Here's the "after" photo:
That's more like it! Hope your house looks just like you like it, wherever you are...
