House Painting Projects: Part III

Another day down and a lot more painted! Woo Hoo! We have definitely been working hard on getting this all done.  We got everything done on the hutch including the first coat of sealant and the rest of the shelves painted.  It is just waiting for the first coat on the shelves and the second coat on the rest of the hutch and it is done! FINALLY! It was probably the hardest piece we had to do so far.

We also finished our ugly brown desk.  It is no longer ugly brown! It is a charcoal gray, which you will notice in the pictures to follow, and it happens to match our nightstands and bed, so that should look pretty good! I'm going to buy some metallic silver spray paint to do the handles, etc.  My dad has been a huge help and really makes things easier for me and it is really nice to catch up on life and memories that i don't remember haha.  He has told me some pretty good stories!

I actually found out where i got my mission call to before i ended up waiting!  I have seriously wondered that ever since i got my actual call.  I had no idea and i didn't think that anyone knew!  I'm not going to disclose it on here because i want to tell Brighton first, but i will definitely share the experience sometime!  Maybe i'll add a couple funny stories I learned about myself and my family growing up!

Here are the before and afters of our desk...


It was a pretty crappy brown color... haha



We love the color! It looks like a brand new piece of furniture like we bought it from IKEA or something... it looks pretty good!
