The laundry room is still a wreck, as you can see. At least now it's a newly-painted wreck with new window shades. The paint is Valspar's Sparkling Sage. (On the walls; it's Luna on the ceiling.) The shades are Emmie roll-up shades from Ikea. I feel like I've gone through some sort of rite of passage because I now own something from Ikea. (Even though I actually bought the shades on eBay because they're not sold on Ikea's website and the closest store to me is like 7 hours away.) I also cut and mitered three pieces of trim and put them up. There are three more pieces left to do. You can't rush these things, you know. I decided what color I'm going to paint the floor and I bought the paint. Not that I've started painting, or even opened the can, but it's there if the mood strikes me. In related news, I think I was a bear in a past life, or some other animal that hibernates, because come January and February I want to do nothing but sleep.
Me too, about the sleeping. I can't seem to muster the energy to do the important projects on my list.
ReplyDeleteI totally understand about sleeping away January and February. To be honest with you I think I have enough fat stored that I could probably do it!
ReplyDeleteWe've been working on a rental property this winter and this house has an antique brass and crystal light fixture in the dining room. Are you still looking for a light fixture for your dining room? This house is an small Victorian and the fixture is very ornate. I can send pictures if you think you might be interested.
