Front Hall Upgrade

The front hall is finally getting a new coat of paint. It was painted a blah yellow color by the Previous Owners.

After the floors were finished, I realized it was time to finish the area. Here are the before shots, notice the pretty floors!

I painted it Benjamin Moore Gray Mirage. Its a nice color with sage and a little blue in it.  I am going to paint the upstairs hall a lighter color. Eventually.

I painted the trim BM Decorator's White. I love crisp white trim. I also bought a new rug from Overstock.

Now all that's left is to pull up the carpet on the stairs, paint the treads, and replace the front door!

New hardwood floor

We now have hardwood flooring in the bedroom and master bath hall!

We pulled up the old blue carpet left by previous owners and added 2 1/4 inch maple to match the rest of the upstairs hall and bedrooms.

Of course, seeing the new floors makes me want to refinish the rest of the floors in the house. If we ever buy a new house, remind me to have the floors done before we move in.
