I find them very encouraging. In fact, I should probably get off the computer right now and get started on remodeling our bathroom, like I have been talking about doing for about three years now. There's no time like the present! Thanks for the inspiration!<br /><br /><a href="https://minutemanintl.wordpress.com/2016/03/07/huge-spaces-covered-by-commercial-floor-scrubbers/" rel="nofollow">Delbert Powers @ Minute Man Intl</a>Delbert Powershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03586588661659295623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977598181264970040.post-33743724837292355752016-02-07T22:50:23.516-06:002016-02-07T22:50:23.516-06:00Thank you so much!

I imagine a white floor would show everything all the time and be a tremendous amount of work. I've always wanted a wide planked floor -- must be great and it sounds like you have the coolest landlord ever!

On the Naval paint color, I used a different brand in my living room, but it's virtually the same color and I LOVE it with the white trim I have. I'm not a big fan of too much white. I almost did the floors white, but I ended up choosing a silvery gray because if the cleaning factor. (I live in an apartment with painted wood plank floors. Thankfully my landlord doesn't care much what I do with the place, as long as it's an improvement!)Corrinnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05950184412786914815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977598181264970040.post-46136466728688310162016-02-01T18:04:23.176-06:002016-02-01T18:04:23.176-06:00I love paint too, hence being a paint pusher.

At the time I ripped through several rooms, I was in just.have.to.get.rid.of.these.awful.colors mode so I knew I was making extra work for myself. Originally I did the whole kitchen in Gravel, then the wallpaper went above the cabinets.<br /><br />Don't be intimidated -- high spaces take a little effort and carefulness but it'll be worth it. You'll be so glad you did it! I'm a paint pusher.<br /><br />But wow, you have now given me the gift of a fabulous new color for the repertoire, omg, it's gorgeous. Holy cow, what a color! Thank you! And I will never buy paint in cashmere either; there's enough devil in this house.

If you repaint your kitchen...Oh, just a thought.... If you repaint your kitchen again, I think Sherwin Williams Naval would look good. It's a very deep blue that can look nearly black at night. I think it would look cool with the blues you have on the other walls and your black cabinets and wallpaper. I think it would take all attention away from the things you don't like too much. I have a Naval living room and I love it to pieces. If you decide to use it, for the love of God don't buy it in cashmere. The devil himself formulated cashmere.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12108873088311177166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977598181264970040.post-7167959168138133122016-01-22T12:49:17.402-06:002016-01-22T12:49:17.402-06:00Sometimes you just don't know how the room wil...Sometimes you just don't know how the room will feel until you've lived in it. That's why you noticed your countertops and floor more later on. When I see purple in the mall or other people's houses, I love it. But whenever I've done purple in my own house, it drove me mad.Sometimes you just need to see how it feels for awhile. How did you paint above your cabinets? I am thinking about repainting my kitchen but the high space intimidates me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12108873088311177166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977598181264970040.post-5261297526998658482016-01-21T10:44:58.033-06:002016-01-21T10:44:58.033-06:00Heh, thanks for the reassurance but indeed, you do...Heh, thanks for the reassurance but indeed, you do make a very valid point. As you did, I rushed to paint and as such, have since repainted several rooms. While it's frustrating and difficult to wait at times, it does save tremendous time, money, and effort and gives one time to really think everything through; I completely agree.<br /><br />Thank you for such a fantastic comment!Flipping the Fliphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15227745256321418042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977598181264970040.post-20617862247642845902016-01-21T10:26:56.407-06:002016-01-21T10:26:56.407-06:00In all seriousness, though - Your "procrastin...In all seriousness, though - Your "procrastination" on some projects saves work over the long run. When my wife and I moved into our house, we immediately worked on a couple of the rooms just to get rid of the awful paint. Just to get something done with them. And then, a couple of months later, we completely redid these rooms again because what we'd done the first time wasn't what we really wanted.<br /><br />Waiting until you're sure of what you want to do saves you from doing double work. I think it's smart to hold off until you have a clear idea.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
