So wayyyyyyy back in January I mentioned my house goals for the year. One was to make over my dining room and FINALLY put paint on the walls. (yes, a year and a half after moving into this house).
Well if you follow me on facebook, you got a sneak peek of my dining room.
I never knew what a little gallon of $25 paint could do!
It's hard to capture the exact color, but it's kind of a blue/gray. It's called Cosmic Rays and it's the new Olympic paint and primer in one from Lowes.
I loved how smooth it went on and how it covered so easily.
When we got engaged, hubby painted on the walls in our brand new house!
Ever since then, it's been a running joke that whenever we painted a room, we had to write something on the wall.
Since this was the first wall in this house that was painted, we had to write on the wall!
I still have a few touch ups to do and I haven't completely decided if I'm going to put up my gallery wall I worked so hard on!
But I have figured out a way to include all of you in my dining room makeover!
It's going to be done over time, but I thought with this being an election year that we could do a vote for various things to include in the room!
Have you ever seen those TV shows where the people plan their entire wedding based on viewers votes? I thought that would be fun to do with my dining room! You decide the rug, furniture, art work etc.
I plan on the first vote in the next few weeks, starting with the floor! I am so excited to have your input on this. Look for Dining Room Decisions 2012 soon :)
What a fun concept. Looking forward to voting. :) Megan
ReplyDeleteI love that color! and that you write on your walls before you paint.. so cute!
ReplyDeleteBe sure to give yourself veto power!! You don't want to have to live with purple and orange striped walls -- or worse!! (Just sayin'....lol!)
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed that the lovely color that you picked for the walls was able to cover over the red! :-)
ReplyDeleteLooks gorgeous!
