Running on Fumes

We start our vacation on Thursday. 12 days off. I cannot wait. Especially since everyone at work knows I am going to be gone, they are working my tail off. I am not complaining, but I am definetly feeling it.

However, that doesn't stop me from working around the house at the same time. I am a multi-tasker. I can create training decks AND do home improvement at the same time.

Ha!

Okay, to be straight... I decided to go ahead and start painting the guest bathroom on my lunch break.


The color is Phoenix Swiss - from Frazee Paint - color match to Behr. It's actually the color of all of our trim work in the house. I actually didn't even think to match the board & batten from the office to the trim work. I was SURE that the Marshmallow paint I picked out would match the IKEA bookcases exactly. And then the paint when on the wall - and it's MUCH brighter than the bookcases, the trim and my closet doors.

 
The Phoenix Swiss is just about perfect. So I will be using it in several places in the house where I have molding going in.



I do not have an after yet, because I still need to add a second coat and then paint the primed MDF boards. And I still need to decide if I am going to add some COLOR on the top portion of the bathroom or make it the Perfect Greige (which is going in on most of our walls).

Decisions, decisions.

In the meantime, for people not supposed to be using the guest bath, there is a whole lot of evidence suggesting otherwise. Tsk Tsk.
