Day 1 |
.
Painting the hallway on the second floor was the first task, for various reasons. One being that I felt I needed some light colors around to cheer me up. I picked a faux finish off of a card in Home Depot. Then I invited everybody I knew over. Some of them showed up. |

The hallway before we started. | Brad masked off the baseboards and molding. | Meagan started applying the base coat. Meagan loves Trading Spaces. |

Base coat nearly done. | Red doors become white. | Linder and Nikki start doing the faux finish. |

Jenn and Heather and Nikki painting. | Actually, Jenn's role was more supervisory. | She did entertain the troops during pizza hour. |
...
Painting got boring so Linder and Nikki assembled some CD racks from Ikea. | Nikki starts down the stairs. | Milla's job is to sit around and look beautiful. |

Linder wanted to be the princess. | Thunderbelly was there in case anything needed sitting upon. | Everybody was a flurry to get painting as quickly and as thoroughly as possible. |

In the end, my color choices make it look as though one has been swallowed by a salmon. And if I'd set the white balance properly, they'd all look the same. Wouldn't that be nice? |
