...and it begins!

.....tomorrow morning.


We have not only carpet, but tile to remove (hard to explain what they did, like I said built for someone in a wheelchair), before the flooring goes in.

Oh, and my husband said, picking out the paint was on me.  Hm.  He wasn't that thrilled with the living room color until it was all done.  Not sure how this will turn out ha ha!  I will get samples before buying it.

Blog posts should resume after we are done or close to being done.  Hopefully some photos to share some time next week.

LOL when I picked the paint colour for our living room and dining room, Harvey said it looked like chocolate ice cream. Now he loves it. I actually wanted one darker wall, but settled for what he would allow.

God bless.

Sounds like another huge project! I hope it goes well!

If not in stores, where are you selling things? Happy renovations.

OOOOOH! Paint color! I so want to try Sherwin Williams "Retreat" and "Acacia Haze." They're in the green family. Beautiful. I asked Hubby if we could repaint the upstairs bath to "try out" the color RETREAT. He answered, "Is it worth $80. a gallon for you to "try it out?" Whaaaat?!?! Crazy expensive is everything these days! Anxious to see the color you choose.

Mother Em, I am not able to sell in stores and have decided not to spend the money to sell on Etsy. I may a post here regarding the items you last inquired about. https://pioneerwomanatheart.blogspot.com/2023/02/wandering-thoughts.html

Leigh, it's been a bit of a rough ride on this project.

M. Meyers. Ask the paint dept for a sample can of the paint. It might be under $10 but you can paint a bit on the wall and see if you will like it before you invest in a larger can of paint.
