We closed on our house on Thursday last week, and by Friday at midnight I had painted our living room and dining rooms. I painted over a burnt orange in the living room, that I honestly thought was going to take 5 coats, and a yellowy/orange in the dining room.
Here are images of the before and after for our dining room. I'm really happy with how it turned out. It cost under $100 as the only things I needed were paint supplies and new curtains, which I picked up from target. I'll be posting the before and after of the living room and kitchen in the next two weeks on my website www.JuliePiddingtonDesigns.com .

Just need one more pair of curtains for this window. I wanted to be sure I loved the ones I bought before committing to two pairs. |

I used Benjamin Moore's "Patriot White" and installed our vintage Louis Poulsen PH pendant.
