4. Now come on over and do mine...
;) What color? What color accesories are you planning to use. I need to paint my kitchen but, I have wallpaper up and dread the idea of taking that down - messy.

More details please, lol.

7. First time I've painted and HGTV does make it look too easy
the blue tape doesn't work well, and it a pain to take off

11. Mr Beastman and I agreed on a coffee/'40's diner theme
with black and stainless steel. The toffee looks really good against the black. I am addicted to home decorating shows and have been wanting to paint for awhile. Mr Beastman keeps saying we have opened Pandora's box...next room...The bedroom! }(

16. Ok, I confess, me too.
I either watched or recorded most of the HGTV shows. Took a break from that during campaign 2000 and again after 9/11.

The kitchen sounds great. We did our upstairs in shades of taupe.. with touches of black such as all the picture frames. Very soothing.
Next stop the kitchen and then l/r d/r.

When you're finished post a pic we'd all love to see it.

5. what brand of paint did you use and would you rate it as ...
easy to get on the wall? The last paint I used just didn't seem to go on easily.

8. It took two coats , which surprised me
we went with a satin finish, because we had white matte before, it showed every handprint and you can't wipe it down.

15. no phone call yet
Edited on Thu Aug-19-04 12:28 PM by Mrs_Beastman
I'm going to call my informants at work at 2pm to see how the lay-offs are going down, since two is when the first wave of 'packets' are handed out to the first shift.
