Well, it's been a while since I've posted...we've been out of town and had a few other things pop up. We've made a little progress with regard to the paint in the master bath...otherwise, I'm counting on Joe to knock some things off the 'honey-do' list during his vacation. (some vacation, right?) Seriously, he's looking forward to getting the bathrooms officially done and not hanging over his head.
So here's what we did in the master bath after we painted the stripe:

(Glamorous work...)
Yes--I climbed up the ladder and did the cutting in and the rolling....oh man was I feeling a little dizzy in that corner! Joe was holding the ladder for me. I volunteered and it felt good to be doing some of the not-so-fun pieces of the projects.
Anyways, after two coats of paint had dried, we realized that the paint color for the stripe was DIFFERENT than the two coats of paint on the back wall. ummmm.

I tried to talk my way around it. It was the light from the window...or, the reflection of...whatever...Then we checked the cans...sure enough, someone had entered the wrong combo of numbers and the stripe was off by one of the numbers. Unbelievable!
Guess which wall we re-painted? Yep, I taped off the stripe again and quickly painted one coat of the correct color (Valspar's Cincinnatian Hotel Hannaford). That did the trick!

I'm so glad we did it--it made such a big difference!
More updates to come: I finished the backsplash for both bathrooms and Joe has made major progress--stay tuned! And thanks for reading. I had a good run with my posts and I'm hoping to get back into a regular rhythm :)
