Beginning to Repaint Our Home!

When we bought our home this past summer, we fell in love with the space; the spacious floor plan, the beautiful hardwood flooring... and knew it had so much potential.  


We had 'that feeling' right away, that feeling that we could make this 'our home, our nest'.  Our Realtor told us that within a few minutes potential buyers know if they are interested in buying a home....it's due to 'that feeling', that connection that you get right away.

Walls before painting from Setting for Four


Since we moved in end-July, repainting has been a top priority...the bright yellow, forest green and burgundy wall colors don't go with our furniture.  These colors also made the home look more closed-in and dreary.


We were confident that repainting would make a huge difference in the space - and it has with the help of Sherwin Williams and "Mindful Gray"!!
