Finally Red

I mentioned I was painting my dining room red. Well, it’s finally red. Nearly three gallons of paint and 5 coats and it’s the deep red I wanted. This isn’t a great photo because I just noticed I’ve got some crud on the lens that is making it spotty. But, you get the idea.

And… hey… it’s just a “normal” post. No rant included.

You know that question… if you were a color, what color would it be… this is the color I am – a deep, rich red with blue undertones… deep, ruby red… I hope I don’t ever feel the urge to make a whole room this color again. Or if I do that it’s only after they’ve come up with a way to make red paint actually COVER.

I’m starting to live like a grown up – I have curtains up and everything. OK, not everywhere… but I’m making progress. OK, it’s slow progress… but it’s progress.
