Behr Paint and Primer in Ashes, PB bedding, Homegoods striped pillows, and Skyline headboard
|
As you may know, I painted my room a couple weeks ago and while doing so, learned a few things about myself in the process. First, I need to work out. I made a few rolls with the extended roller and Eric decided that he could push harder. He could and he did...time to get back to the gym. Next, I'm more of a 'paint the trim' kinda gal. I have more patience when it comes so small nooks and crannies, so the trade-off worked out well. Lastly, I'm a pretty good taper and I really enjoyed doing it. I may never know why I found it so therapeutic.
Although I painted, please still consider this photo a "before" shot. I plan on doing a little more decorating and will be sure to share an "after" (so far I have a bed, dresser, night stands...yeah, that's it). Also, the lighting makes it look a bit taupe-y here, but I assure you it's very gray.
Also, be sure to enter the Soc Chic giveaway which ends Friday (click below).

I love the gray! What a great shade for a bedroom. And I too tend to be better at brush-painting little nooks and crannines.

Looks fantastic.
I find sweeping the porch therapeutic, sometimes it's just the little things :)
It looks great! And PS I will hire you just to come tape, I hate taping! I have zero patience.

Look at you! I'm impressed with your painting skills. I hope to one day soon, live in an apt / house that I can paint! Looking forward to seeing the "after" photo ;) although I think it's looking pretty great so far!
I love it and can guarantee you that painting is a lot more fun than 5lb weights. Especially since a 5lb weight can hit you in the head on the way back down. Not pretty.
