The photos were taken in the afternoon from with the sun coming in…the paint color shows up a little pink, but it’s actually a greige color~ beige with a touch of gray. The large arched window seriously needs a window treatment!!! The house looked like this for a few day…Īnd here’s the after…stepping in from the front door… I love how the dark wood and painted furniture looks against the light paint. Here’s before the painters arrived …looking back toward the front door. Here’s what you would see if you dropped by and walked in the front door… The color was very cheerful, but I was ready for a more neutral background. I’m sure you remember how it looked before with the yellow/orange/gold walls…lol…it all depended on the time of day. Plus, what probably would have taken a whole month of weekends(if we were lucky), only took the painters a few days. Fanatic and I are diyers for the majority of things that need to be done around the house, but painting 18 foot ceilings is something best left to the professionals.
#COST TO PAINT 2 STORY FOYER PROFESSIONAL#
Our Family Room, Foyer and two Hallways desperately needed painting, so we called in some professional help to get it done. The painters have finished and our house is now put back together…for now. More of Pam’s projects: Daughter’s Bookcases: #1 and #2, Organized Armoire, Front Porch Makeover I couldn’t do any of this without the talent of my awesome husband of 26 years, who used to be a chef and is skilled in all areas of DIY. All of you stay at home moms know what I mean! Now that my girls are out of high school, I’m still at home creating, gardening and blogging about the adventures of DIY life. Professionally I’ve been a fashion designer, closet designer and have designed kitchens and baths, but the hardest job I’ve ever had is being a stay at home mom. I am a hopeless DIYer, gardener, decorator, crafter, seamstress and organizer of things. I love the way this newly painted foyer turned out! It’s so bright and crisp, it makes a wonderfully welcoming entry into her home!
