Big changes

The final stages of our renovation are here now and our pace has picked up. We are sprinting toward the finish line in wonderful fashion and I couldn't be happier.

The last couple of weeks Paul has been painting away diligently. I have tried to keep the kids away as much as possible and he's been able to achieve a lot in a very short amount of time.

Until last week we were greeted each day by a horrible entry area. The walls were covered in paint splatter, pen marks (thanks kids) and a splotches of stain that fell everywhere when the staircase was being finished. This is what were were living with.




Then Paul rode in and waved his magic paintbrush. Soon we were left with a peaceful, clean entry area awash with paint.









Bliss!

Oh my goodness it looks so stylish, love the bird pics. Our kids did the "pen down the stairs" thing while we were in a rental and I had to do some careful cleaning with toothpaste.Enjoy.

What a difference a coat of paint makes. Your entrance now looks very inviting. Ange
