Progress

I decided to re-name the blog from Sanding Block to Lot 26, as this is our lot number in the mobile home park. And it just sounds way cooler.. :-)

Today, I painted our master bathroom. It's a tiny tiny space, but still took a while to do because of all of the corners, and painting around everything. We finally decided on Icy Blue from Valspar. It's a beautiful pale aqua/turquoise color that's very vibrant.

Our living room floor is almost down. One more session ought to finish it. Yay! We decided on Beach Sparkle for the living room walls, also by Valspar, the darkest sample on the same one as the Icy Blue. The master bedroom will be the "middle color" on the sample, Cincinnatian Hotel Abbey.

Originally, our color choices were all over the place. We were tossing around the idea of painting our bedroom gray or a dark plum, but for some reason, those colors just weren't happy or calming enough. We fell in love with Beach Sparkle for the living room, and decided to go with the whole swatch. Now it's just hard to decide what do do with the office and secondary bedroom. We wanted a pink office for so long, but I'm afraid that it will look too bubble gum, looking from a blue living room to a pink office. Choices choices.
