Yay! Paint Master Bedroom and beyond

It all started with the custom T.V. unit in the corner of our master bedroom! Of course, this was a perfect opportunity for me to get my master painted. So, I sweetly talked Erik into doing it. I went to all the paint stores to find the "perfect" color for our master bedroom. I think deep down Erik and I both knew this was not going to stop at just paint, but we ignored that point and went on. We landed on the green family swatches!
Meet Artichoke from Sherwin Williams


We got 2 gallons, stir sticks, painter tape, brushes, and pans. We were ready to paint!



So, Erik begins to tape off the molding from the walls. He knew I would go "paint happy" and accidentally paint the parts that weren't suppose to be green. hehe he does know me. I was so giddy to put this color on that I did that and accidently got some on the rug. oops! Good thing we are replacing the carpet for hardwoods



Then, he took over from there


while I took pictures and did the trim


oh, who knew paint was so messy:
Good tip: Use Clorox wipes...it gets out anything ;)


At this point, I didn't want to end up looking like shrek the green character, so Erik took over


3 walls were down and 1 to go!
