Painting project

I took on a big project once the kids went back to school. I've painted the whole entire upstairs a dark tan. It looks so good and I'm happy with how it turned out. It was worth all the hours. I basically only did it when Cambree was sleeping so it has taken me a long time.
This is the living room. We got a piano from my sister and so we moved the couches downstairs where the apartment used to be and now the kids have a place to crash with friends and watch t.v.This is a shot in the kitchen.
Before I painted
After! Look how it makes the molding just POP!!! I love it.
Family room. Not a very good picture doesn't really show the contrast but it looks alot better than it did.
