Kitchen- New countertops and new curtains. I want to paint the room too- Maybe a dark color like red or orange.
Living room- I want plantation shutters and paint. I like the furniture that we have, but the walls are a beige, (as is every wall in the house,) but finding a paint color to complement the furniture will be a challenge. What goes with hunter green? Marc would love to add hardwood floors, but that is labor and cost extensive. I could live with a good carpet cleaning.
Outside- Marc wants to totally redo the entire porch, but I would be happy to replace the railing or paint it. The shutters were once a bright hunter green, but they are now a faded, sad color.
I would also like to replace the knobs and fixtures throughout the entire house. When we bought the house, everything matched throughout...and the brass knobs aren't lovely to me anymore. Changing the knobs on the cabinets is an inexpensive way to give a nice face lift.
Who knows when I'll find the time (or the money) to do all of these projects, but every once in awhile you need to do things to keep your house in good shape...Anybody wanna come teach me to paint???
