Beauty day

Denny and I are enjoying the gorgeous weather today by…staying inside and working on the house. Actually, Denny did some yard work, but I mostly plugged away on wallpaper. I was making great progress in the dining room, and then I moved into the kitchen, where the wallpaper is slightly different. And by “slightly different” I mean “much more difficult to remove.” But I’m plugging away at it. We are going to celebrate a little tonight by grilling, which is a shockingly wonderful thing to do in early February.

I’m excited to get started painting, but that will probably be a whole-weekend project, so it might have to wait a bit. We think we’re going to use Danish Blue and Sour Lime from the Lowe’s American Tradition Waverly Home Classics collection. They have samples online, but at least on my monitor, they don’t look like they do on the paint chips. Danish Blue is a deep blue that’s more toward the green end of blue than the purple end. Sour Lime is a light yet exciting yellowish green.

Paint fume-induced hallucinations may follow.
