Painting Project Complete!

We put our own "personal touch" on the house this past weekend and we really like how it turned out. The hallway and entryway were done in champagne gold which is a nice bright shade with a light yellow undertone. The walls leading down to the stairway will also be done in this same color and will be painted by a professional this Friday. We didn't want to mess with either scaffolding or a tall ladder, so we decided to pay someone else to risk falling! lol...

In the living room we used a color called pumpkin butter. It's a very warm color and not near as scary as the pics indicate! Our kitchen and dining room was done in a dark terra cotta color when we moved in and the pumpkin butter compliments it very well.

I've attached some pics, but please keep in mind that the pics don't do it justice. One of them looks much more orange than it is; another makes it look yellower than it is! And the hallway color just plain doesn't show much.

It looks so nice! I like the color because it really brightens up the room. I guess you're just doing your last minute preparation for your little one to arrive.

How ambitious to paint! I love the pumpkin butter color- I'm a total fan of warm colors, though. And it does look great with the terra cotta. I would love to paint one wall in our dining room a dark red, but never badly enough to actually go through with it, ha ha. Kudos to you- it turned out great!
