First Week ~ The Interior Paint

Saturday, April 2, 2011


      The colors of the inside parlor and great hall were all this rose/pink color (see bottom portion in the picture above).  Not only were all the walls this color, but the ceiling as well!  Mary and I spent days tapping off the wood stained trim, and partitioned the walls into a tri-color scheme Missy had chosen before hand.  Using Behr Ultra paints, we went with Cottage White for the upper portions including ceiling, Quiet Veranda (soft yellow) for the middle, and from Martha Stwart Collection, Feather Duster (greenish/gray) for the bottom.  We loved how it turned out.

We did rip out all the old (not original) baseboards.  They were too thick and seemed to make the room look smaller to us.  So finding new baseboards and then stain-matching is yet another project added to the list.
