So naturally, what does one do when things are dark? You paint them bright white of course!
Obviously now the space is a little plain and needs some color accents but the major part is over. Almost 11 hours of painting and voila!..... PS, I'm pretty sure I have acquired Carpel Tunnel through the stair painting process, LOL. I literally woke up with a sore hand this morning.
Oh and for those wanting to know what a 130 year old door looks like with a little trim and paint, here you go....This is the quilt Patti made for us before we left Utah, matches perfectly huh? Although I do think I may trade it out sometimes for a modern blanket which I have yet to find. Keeping my eye out for a retro looking comforter with Red, white and brown(but not too much) in the pattern.

looks lovely. do you have any "before" pictures to compare?
I totally didn't get that that's all you were going to paint! I LOVE it!!
You painted all that white on the stairs? Oh my gosh, what a pain! It looks, beautiful, though, so I'd say it was well worth it. The headboard and quilt are awesome!
It all looks so beautiful!
A couple of bedding sets in red, white & brown

Not a bad price for your specific colors? Oh and we'ew looking to buy a house so hopefully you wouldn't be opposed to answering some painting questions when I need it? You have done an awesome job! =)
