Started by pulling off the old base trim and mudding up the holes...
1. This is NOT the first thing I wanted to see
Is there ONE ROOM in this house where someone didn't kick or punch in a wall?
2. We picked out a trim we both liked, I cut it out based on my CAD drawing and mocked it up on the wall to see what it would look like, and I love it!
So, over the next couple/few weeks I hope to knock out the dining room and finish the rest of the downstairs. We've picked out a cool red for the top, and the bottom will be a matte white, and I'll paint the chair rail and trim semi gloss ultra white, just so it doesn't all blur together.
