Finish Coats of Paint

Both downstairs bedrooms got painted last weekend, and my parents got the living room painted yesterday.  The upstairs bedroom ceiling is done, and most of the woodwork is finished.  We have started to strip the paint from the doors, and also have a functional kitchen.


The smaller 1st floor bedroom in a blue, on the left.

On the right is the larger 1st floor bedroom, done in an aqua.





The living room and hallway are a light sage green.


The peach and green look good where the kitchen and the living room come together.  I am also glad we decided to paint the arches with ceiling white.


The black door is no longer black, and the wood looks really nice.  I think that all the doors will eventually be taken down to wood as we have time, but for now it will just be the ugliest.


Demolition in the attic has made it easier  to see just what fun we will have to deal with in the coming months.  The revealed  cast iron vent stack can now be extended, it currently only sticks out of the rook about two inches above the flashing.  

The pipe hanging in the background is a wood burning stove chimney.  That needs to be removed, the main chimney will need patched where that was cut into it, as well as likely need a new liner.  Once it is gone we can move on to the bathroom and add the vent fan that it needs.  The electricians will also be able to get back in there and add some plugs easier.
