So this is what we've accomplished thus far... the rest I'll post when I can get the rooms clean enough for a picture LOL

See I am useful sometimes Lol

I gotta say, that looks 100% better. Whoever painted those rooms before should have been drug out into the street and shot - really bad roller marks. I'm glad it's coming together for ya. Maybe one of these days I'll get my house done .

You're telling me... apparently they thought that neon colors and hideously dark colors were the way to go.... crazy Mormons I tell ya! LOL

Its still got more rooms I'm working on.... mainly the front room which we use as the computer room but we have to rip down all the walls and ceiling so that one is waiting until after Iraq. And of course the husband still hasn't put up my darn crown molding in the kitchen. So the ceiling isn't painted in there yet... and the bathroom... **sigh** I married a procrastinator... two procrastinators= a lot of unfinished rooms BUT they'll be done before October... OR ELSE

I'm sure yours will be done soon. You do more artistic things than I do though so it may take a little longer. I'm a coat of paint kind of girl

Good Job MandaMae! They do look much much better!!
CONGRATS!! you've accomplished alot!

Wow! Those previous owners really need help! Hideous is a very good description. I like what you've done and the Princess Emily on the wall, with all the dodads is very creative. You don't give yourself enough credit. It looks to me like you've gone a long way into turning the house into a home.

We're working our buns off trying to make it look non-scary lol
That was my biggest turn off about this house was the colors... apparently they were blind or insane. LOL

Well, honestly, the colors probably wouldn't have been that bad had they just done a good paint job. No, wait, I remember the pics you put up of the kitchen. On second thought, maybe it would have been .

Speaking of painting, I have some of that to be doing in the next few weeks.
