the hallway - you can get peaks of the black doors - all 10 of them have been painted Walls are ultra white- as well as all the moldings and baseboards |
trying to run our business - painting furniture - and working on her place I am just about finished. ( for now, it doesn't take long for me to be itching to go again )
The doors each took 2 coats - and I painted both sides - so like painting 40 doors, lol - plus I scraped and cleaned each 80 year old handle and back plate and even painted the screws ( each screw was removed and
placed in a wood plank and spray painted ) to match the back plates. The hall walls took 3 coats of paint because they are textured. The fireplace took 4 coats of paint. This was labor intensive.
And I still have 1 french door left to scrape - and maybe some touch ups - but mission is almost accomplished!!!!
Nella - I keep forgetting about the radiator in the hallway - REMIND ME!!!!! lol

LOVE the doors. Will be tackling mine soon as well but a slate teal. What is the gray color on the walls?

Slate steel sounds beautiful Rebecca - I did all of my Mom's in a slate gray - they were gorgeous -
ReplyDeleteI don't have the gray color ( the paint chip is at her house but
I will try to remember to get that.
Thanks
