Renovating

We've almost been in our home for 4 years now.  Wow how time flies! 
I've wanted to paint the whole house ever since we moved in, but it's such a huge task, and then there is the issue of how to pay for it.  
We have finally started on the main floor.  And it's not just paint.  I'm having Chris do a lot of wood work, before the painting can even begin. 

Here is a list of what will happen when it's all done.

Two Columns in the living room.  
Chair rail and boxes on the wall, in the entry way, and dining room. 
Paint the entry way, living, and dining rooms.
New curtains (6 panels), and carpet.  Carpet eventually.
Two new closet doors, (entry coat closet), and the (broom closet), with new door nobs.

Someday, I hope to really go through the whole house, making improvements.  I'm sure it will be a life long project.  All new doors, cabinets in the laundry, etc... etc...

So we just got started, and so far, we've got one column built.
One down, and one to go....
 The columns, chair rail, and boxes below the chair rail, and wood above the doors, and all trims will be painted a cream color.  And all other wall colors will be kind of dark.  The color is called Copper Penny.  A dark brownish, Orange.
Let the Renovations begin... 




 P.S.  Chris is amazing!!!
