On second thought...





Remember my declaration of love for bead board ceilings, and how I thought maybe we should do ALL of our ceilings in the beloved bead board? Yeah. Not feeling that so much now.

I just finished the primer coat on the ceiling. Holy bat cave Batman. I'm pooped and I still have the rest of the painting to go. (walls, folding table, sink stand, bench, etc.)

Anne's ceiling is painted and the new chandy is up. I'm loving the colours that Layla of The Lettered Cottage picked out. She is amazing, and if you haven't visited her blog- go. Run. Really.

Here are some random picks of Brighton Cottage to keep you entertained until I finish the damn ceiling of my oh-so-fabulous new laundry room. That is going to kill me.

Travis, put my urn above the folding table.

Thank you.

  1. Gotta love painting over your head..... You're wearing safety glasses, right? Unlike a few summers ago when I stained our patio and got a million and one drops of Behr stain in.my.eyeballs! Yeah, not good.

  2. Very nice so far. Are you using a good extention pole for the roller? That saves SOME wear and tear on the body.

  4. Michelle- Lucky for me I wear glasses. So my NICE glasses are now paint speckled. Oh well, maybe paint speckled will be all the rage...

    Sydwynd- Got the pole. Even better would be a man with a pole...wait, that sounded wrong!

    Kristin- I think I am DONE, DONE, DONE with painting for a while.

  8. Danielle- The day I finally found them I felt like I should go buy a lottery ticket! It was my find of the summer for sure : ) I wanted all four, but they didn't have the large box : (
