House Painting After Pics

Drumroll please... I finally took pictures and blogged about our house painting that we completed back in March. Only 2 months late but who's counting? I even went so far as to carry my laptop around so the "before" and "after" shots matched up perfectly. I'm no Young House Love or Katie Bower but I was pretty pleased with myself ;) You can see all the before pics in this post. We repainted for two main reasons: we weren't in love with the goldy-yellow color our builder used and it was a flat finish so it showed every scratch known to mankind. Hope I don't offend anyone who loves goldy-yellow. It's great, really! Just not our style :) We picked out what I call a greige. In some light it looks gray, in some light it looks beige. Shoot in some light in the evening it kinda looks sage. All in all... I LOVE IT!

Down the hallway to the office, guest bedroom, guest bath, and laundry room

Never did post the before pics of our family room so enjoy the afters :) We used a different color down here than the rest of the house. It's more tan than the upstairs greige.

The door you see takes you to the garage a.k.a. Trent's man cave.

Last pic finally. See the furry friend anywhere?? :) The door on the far right leads outside to the patio. Door in the middle is the 1/2 bath and the door on the left is down to the basement.

That should be all the afters cause we've hung up our paintbrushes for awhile!!
