Before and After






When I drove across the country to move to LA, Mark had literally just found an apartment for us a week before. I moved into the mess you see here. So, seeing as I was unemployed I put all my time into getting the apartment ready for public viewing. Many paint chips later, you see the amazing transformation. We put Venetian plaster on the dining room walls in yellow ochre. It looks so nice (for me to poop on).
Don't worry, that ugly chair is gone!

That looks so great, I love the texture on the walls and the minimal decor.

I had such great intentions for re-doing our old townhouse. Eventually we had to hire a friend to paint the living room because I never had time. We did the downstairs bathroom, but there were paint splotches everywhere that we didn't get around to tidying up until after we put the house on the market.

We are trying to decide whether or not to paint our 2 bedrooms before everyone comes to our house for the rehearsal dinner. I'm still tired from doing the other rooms over 5 months ago!
