A little paint...goes a LONG way

Want to update your home? When we bought our house, the whole thing was a mixture of yellows. Not bright sunshine yellow, but yellow you might find in a diaper. (exactly) We had been doing major reno lately, we had to knock down all the walls in the 3 bedrooms we had, so finally making it down to the second floor took a little longer than planned. I had been going insane looking at the dining room/kitchen in that nasty yellow color, so one day I snapped and bought some paint. We decided that having some imperfections in the wall was going to be ok, and that we would just spackle a little to fix major bumps. I did a few swatches, fell in love with a light grey, then got started!

We use the Behr paint and primer in one. The color we chose is called Gentle Rain. (I love it!)

Here are the before and afters. You tell me what you think!

Yellowish-Brownish

Testing out swatches

On it's way to Gentle Rain!

This is really just a middle of the way picture. I will post a finalized photo in a separate post bc since this paint job, we have added new windows (installed by my husband), granite counter tops (not installed by us) and assembled a pantry style shelving unit. (installed by us!) Once we get the rest of the trim up around the window I'll snap the pic and show you the cost breakdown.
