Paint & Pictures

Oops. I posted out of order. If you're super observant, you may have noticed in yesterday's post that our walls were a different color from last week. That's because we painted the walls & the ceiling! We carried the darker color on the accent wall in our living room up into the whole hallway, and painted the ceiling a nice, crisp white (it was tan before).



Are you wondering about that black frame in the corner? Well, we made a little gallery wall!

See how our new lighting shines right on it, illuminating the fingerprints on the right? 

Here's the low-down on what we framed:

  • The flowers on the left are temporary - they're going to be replaced by a print out of my favorite hymn once I make my way over to Staples.
  • The sunflower in the middle is drawn by my talented husband. I just love all the detail in it!
  • The framed wedding invitation on the right might also temporary. I'm not in love with the colors of it against the wall, so I may either replace it with something else or mat it in a different color.
  • The picture of Justin & I in the middle is my favorite picture of us. 
  • The drawing on the bottom right is of a little boy pulling a dog in a wagon under a streetlight. This is also drawn by that artsy stud I married and it's definitely staying. 
So what do you think? All the changes in this space lately make me a little giddy every time I walk down the hall.


What changes have you been making lately? Any painting or picture-framing?
