Paint

I definitively hate painting. But we finished the living room, so that's good. It's actually the hardest room to paint, because it's so big, and because it was painted this ugly dark brown, so it took like three coats of paint when we applied the lighter yellow.

The paint took forever to get here, because it's supposed to be this really good paint (Benjamin Moore), and we had to special order it.

We painted two of the walls Butter, and two Yellow Something. In this picture you can make up the butter color in the right, and the old brown in the left (the brown looks brighter than it actually is).



The Butter color in the opposite wall:



Comparing the three colors: The Butter (right), the old brown, and the Yellow Something (Left). I accept donations of new digital cameras.



Final thing:



The wall that connects with the kitchen had some ugly gray, 70s looking, counter tops, and I forgot to take a picture of them, but here they are after we ripped them off:



Wall without the counter tops:



After plastering and painting:



Meg wants to put some ceramics on it, which I'm sure will make it look much nicer than it is now.
