Painting Done!

The painting in the house is all done! My projects, except for little updates here and there are complete.

I love having a bright and beautiful bathroom. It went from:



to this:








My bedroom was OK before, but I really hated the closet, and now it is a lovely blue and a tranquil place:







And my guest room is really working out. It was empty:



and now is filled with color and even has a guest futon:







The Great Room is also all decorated and bright:







It is so nice to have a cozy home, with tomatoes on my tomatoe plants and now a DOG to complete the household. Meet Summer, the 4-5 year old Aussie rescue (she was abandoned to the streets of Hollister) I brought home on Monday.

Paint Colors

It is now time for me to pick paint colors. I put patches on the walls in the 2 bedrooms and the bathroom, to see what the colors looked like.






After looking at these for a few days, I decided on Polar Sky for my bedroom, Sherwood Green for the extra bedroom, and Costa Rica Blue for the bathroom.

I also finished putting plants out on my deck. It is now a really lovely reading place.
