I bought a bunch of amazing frames at a garage sale, but there is one frame I can't bring myself to paint. It's a light green colored wood and the texture is so unique and the frame is so wide, I love it! The problem is the rest of my frames are either a nickel colored metal or black. My idea is to paint the frame so it's similar to the rest, but leave in a pop of green. I wonder if that would be too weird.
We still haven't decided on a color for the living room yet. Who would have thought it would be so difficult?? Not me, that's for sure. We did decide to paint the trim white. I'm sorry Mom! I know it's a sin to paint wood, but our trim is so ugly! We do plan to stain the wood ledge on the half walls, and the mantle. Do we get brownie points for that? I hope so! This is a project I probably won't start until next year, we'll see. Mom will be coming up to visit for a week - maybe I will use her to help stain the kitchen cabinets... put her to work! ;) Just kidding. Maybe.
I haven't updated Avalyn's recent milestones so I'll do that, too!
