The First Finished Room- A Hallway

Have been away for a while and now will be back to regular blogging.

We have been discussing before and after, rethinking rooms, and adding to a room to make it dual purpose.

Here is the project that I have just finished with the help of my middle daughter Vicki.

Here is the before pictures of the hallway:

 

 

 

Here is it painted white, as it was a light gold type color, then I panted it plain white.  Next it was striped 3" apart, see below.  I used 1" wide blue painter's tape, marked of the lines, using a level to make sure the lines are straight.  It takes a lot of patience to do the striping.  If you have no time, wait until you do.  Or I you don't care do a little at a time.  When finished you are ready to stripe your walls with whatever color you want.  I chose light blue.

 

 

Here is the finished hall:

 

 

Now with the pictures:

 

 

 

It is long lasting and all I have to do now is change pictures if that is what I want.  One room DONE!!!!

 

This whole look is no more than paint.  I am sure that you have pictures around in different rooms that you can use.  I move paintings all the time.  I can paint whatever I want, change colors, move them from my studio, or teach something I want to hang in my house.  Some paintings, I paint just for shows.

 

You might consider taking a series of painting classes and learn to paint yourself!  Visit my art blog, www.nancysadowskisfineart.blogspot.com.

 

Tomorrow back to some collections.
