DIY: Living Room Painting

We decided to add color to our drab basic beige and white living room walls.

20130807_113724To begin, make sure to use blue painters tape to edge off all of the corners and outlets. 20130808_112257 20130808_11233020130808_113124

Once completed get ready to paint! We selected an combination of blue and grey to compliment each other and our furniture. 20130808_112400Use a small paint brush to paint along the edges of the blue tape.   20130808_114415Use a paint roller to blend the edges and cover the rest of the wall. 20130808_115356(0)Allow a few hours to dry… and Tada!!20130913_094056

Cloom Construction

I previously shared how I was planning to utilize one of the smaller rooms in the home as a walk in closet… or cloom….  And here it is…

The closet started off in true IKEA form, piles of boxes and pressed wood…

Photos wouldn’t do it justice, so I put together a little video of the completed closet.

Sorry for the skinny video… shot it on my phone rather than my camera…. Tsk Tsk Tsk
