As we mentioned in the last post, the concrete floors have been ground and polished. So, before we can finish up in the main part of the house, we need to do some painting. With the finished floors and the beautiful wood on the ceiling, painting the entry, hall and living room was NOT an easy job. We decided on Dunn Edwards Berry Mojito for the entry, hall and living room, as it is a mid-century-esque color that worked well with all of the wood in those areas. For some reason, when the previous owners painted everything white, they did not bother to remove the grates for the vents, and many had the screws painted over. It made for some difficult grate removal. Oh, hello there, Sputnik. The hardest part to get was the area above the soffet, but it all turned out okay. We have a beautiful door chime and a fun, mid-century appropriate door that we are waiting on, but we are happy with how this color turned out. It works very well with the two different stains in the house.
