Painting Practice


Here we are practicing circles. Our plan is for the main wall color to be the blue you see, and then accents with circles in the green and other shades of blue. (not in the pics) Most of the circles were just traced on the wall and then free hand painted. We tried a stencil and stamping, both were a pain. We also discovered that William has a little bit of an artist in him (or may be just an anal retentive perfectionist!) He is in charge of the circles, I cannot be trusted with this task! I did a few the big blue one, and the bottom of the group of three blue ones. It seems that as I go my circle gets bigger trying to make up for the bumps and blurbs! This weekend was also busy putting a final coat of paint on the dining area. That room is now done except for about 8 feet worth of flooring, baseboards and trim around the door. We figure we should try and get one thing done before we really start on the other! My goal is for us to have the baby's room done by the end of August or beginning of September. We shall see!
