Grey and Mustard
So, I painted our office/playroom/piano-room/one-day-library... Grey stripes with a mustard/gold ceiling. It's the room at the front of the house that was originally the dining room (back in the 50's) and that we're not quite sure what to do with. When I told people how I was painting the room, I got so many looks that said "I'm trying to be polite, but really think you are crazy. That sounds awful."
And... I questioned it myself. But Frankie said it would look good, and he hasn't been wrong yet. So, one pencil, 2 levels, 3 rolls of painters tape, 3 colors and 4 gallons of paint, and about 14 hours later, we have our room.
I'm very happy with how it turned out! Here are some before, during and after pictures.
