It has been a long time since the main floor of our home and all the hallways and doors have been painted. We have done individual bedrooms from time to time and the kitchen and bathrooms have been remodeled within the last 10 years, but the main parts have not been painted since Emily was a toddler. She just turned 19!!! Needless to say, it was time to paint. We originally thought that we would have everything painted professionally. So we got several estimates, swallowed hard, and decided the bedrooms could wait (except our bedroom which was part of the original paint job) and that Emily and I would paint the trim and doors in all the rooms. It was a time consuming process, but we got it all done and then had the professionals come in and do the walls, complete with some repairs that needed doing to the drywall. The whole thing was quite the process, but in the end, it turned out beautifully. We are still deciding which things are coming back into the rooms and which are being "retired." It my take a while. Here are some of the during and after shots. Evan was the camera man.

Wow! I like it. The dining room looks so different. I like the laundry room the best. At least from what I could tell in the pics. I think you should now post some "finished" photos, so we can see what it looks like now. And we'd like to see the Kohls super find. :)
