Aaaaand...the office is mostly done.
Sep. 7th, 2010 06:19 pmHow it looked at the start.
From the door of the office, looking out into the hallway. This is a HUGE improvement from what it used to look like. The PLANT isn't on the buffet any more.
Standing at the buffet, looking toward the front door. The PLANT has found a new home. Now, the question is...WTF do I *DO* with said PLANT?
Looking into the office from the buffet. Liam's computer is, well, where Liam is, mine is just behind his, and John's is to the right.
Looking up at John's desk. I shot this low so I could get the artwork on the walls. :-) Hey,

Liam's desk. Baseball is srs bizness, yo!
My desk, now with more pink flowers!
The shelves just to the right of my desk. You should definitely recognize these,

And, last but not least, the drafting table corner.
I wish I had more pictures of the hardwood going in. It's much like laying tile, in that it is laborious, but not difficult. In fact, it's pretty easy. Liam had to make some pretty fancy cuts to go around the rounded edges on the columns, but really? He did a great job! We won't talk about how much adhesive ended up on me, though...
And now...it's dinner time!
And my brain...it gets weird on me.
Jul. 4th, 2010 09:55 amSo, I'd been thinking about repainting the master bath. I was thinking...silvery grey walls, with black cabinets and chrome/silver accents.
Evidently, what I *really* want is purple-blue or blue-purple, with bright white. Or a mushroom-y grey brown, but I think that's loosing ground steadily.
*headdesk*
This first color is called Magic Spell, by Behr. For some reason, it's coming across horribly grey, and it's not...it's very very vibrant.

This is another purply-blue, called Merlin by Valspar. This is a little closer to the true color palette, but wow, it's just not as deep. Of course, this is computer monitor, so I guess I should hush.

The final color I swatched is called Creek Bend, by Bahr. I was hoping it was more grey and less mud, but...not so much. If you look at it on the screen, it looks EXACTLY like the color on the walls already, but...not so much. On the wall, it's MUCH more grey-brown, like, well...creek mud.

Here's a shot of them swatched on the wall. From left to right, it's Magic Spell, Creek Bend and then Merlin. This first wall gets a lot of natural light from the large window just to the right of the tub. The second wall is in the small commode room and gets a lot less light.
