We finished painting the living room. The view facing east.
Facing west. We still have a little spot to do over the window... Aaron has some patching to do there.
Facing south. It looks blue sometimes but the color is Serious Gray from Sherwin Williams.
We made a life changing discovery while painting the living room. I was dreading painting because almost all the rooms have picture frame moulding on the walls. That was going to be a LOT of taping off. Then I started to think - what if I didn't tape off? What if I cut in by hand? Turns out that worked just fine. We have steadier hands than I thought. Now all I can think about is all the time and tape we wasted in the past.
Another big time saver was the power roller we got.
A steady stream of paint and no drips made rolling the paint on go much faster also.
I think the gray really makes the white trim pop.
The windows and bookcases really stand out.
I couldn't wait to put all our stuff back on the shelves.
I really like the gray.
Now to figure out what art to put on the walls.

Looks so sharp & crisp! Beautiful color
Love it!! I see that having a tall husband comes in handy...! The play of light on the walls creates really interesting effects on the color.
Gorgeous!
Wow! You really did a great job with the painting and I just love that color!
Looks perfect! Love the color and all the white mouldings
Yeah I don't need a ladder with Aaron around.
Love it!
Sadly, my hands are LESS steady than I would have thought and I still need to tape things off (grr), but your work looks fabulous!
