Free Paint and Weekend Stuff

Did you get your free paint this weekend at Ace? Love their commercial about the purple color. It is so awesome they gave out a free quart!

I had them mix for me "Ocean Falls", a similar color to other colors I have found I like from other bloggers. Maybe a little brighter though.

Hard to imagine what this room will look like in a beachy blue/green color but I am sure it will look much better! The color now just isn't me. It is more Taupe and not so mustard like it photographs though.

The color card shows colors that are similar but maybe a little darker tone. This is 2 coats--I think I will have to prime these walls even though there is primer in the paint. These walls are just too dark. This will be a lot of work--I am hoping that Jerry will want to paint up here for me...

So yesterday Janae, Chantel and I went and picked up a chandelier that Janae found on Craigslist. It is gorgeous! It has blue/green crystals. I love it. I will let her share it. After that, being in Portland, we did some shopping.

I decide if I ever win the lottery I will get these countertops from Ikea...

Made of recycled glass, I love them! I don't love $143.00 per square foot though:(

Today has been such a beautiful day I was able to do some serious yardwork. There are signs of life in my graveyard of a garden! 

Finally!

Gage thought a beautiful day would be a good time for a Sunday afternoon nap..

  

Wyatt and Chantel played on the trampoline...which is what they do almost everyday of their lives.

My kids do own clothes...they just prefer to wear PJ's all the time at home.

Chores today were the dogs had to get bathed.

Looking forward to a new week of being creative..I hope! :)

Thanks for stopping by! Please do let me know what you think of the paint color I am thinking of.
