Paint, Glorious Paint

It's amazing what a fresh coat of paint will do-- we're on the final stretch of home renovation (I promise to post photos soon...), and there's just one full room to paint (and lots of touch-ups) to go... but it's really pretty impressive what a coat of paint will do. It can transform a room-- brighten, design, all you can imagine-- just with a little color; a refresher. We're sticking to a single color throughout the house (with the exception of chocolate for an accent wall-- in this case, our fireplace)-- it's a small house, so one color made sense... and even though MRN has painted the whole house (magnolia) within the last year, the fresh coat of "Natural Hessian"-- a tan color, has made a world of difference. We figure it's a matter of more expensive paint... so, note to self (or home improvement people everywhere: cheap paint isn't necessarily good; consider the same color throughout the house, with accent colors in select locations; and... I'm sure there's an and... but it's late, and I can't think of one..

Happy painting!
