Dan and Lauren Almario purchased a home in Bonduel. They closed on February 1st and decided they needed to make some improvements before moving in. All the flooring was torn out making way for new wood laminate. Lauren wanted the place painted. She picked a color that is basically white. Then she picked a medium blue color as an accent.
The really interesting thing about this house is that whomever painted it last did not remove any switch plates or outlet covers. They painted right over the top!
Then there are these two closet doors that were painted. The mirrors weren't removed. Why would they be? That's way more work than removing a switch plate.
I really like how the blue turned out. It is a splash of color that's needed with all that white!
We painted the east wall in the living room the same blue color. This built in book shelf in the same room looks so good with the blue background! I carried this little splash of blue to the bathroom cabinets and it is also in the kitchen. It may also get carried yet into the family room. There are drawers there that could be the same splash of blue.
The family room is knotty pine. I'm sure it would be beautiful if someone hadn't tried to stain it a yellowish green color. It reminded me of the color of baby poop. It is now painted that same white. The house has been refreshed and looks so good. It was a labor of love for them. Sammi worked with me and without me some days so we could get it done. I hope they love their home!
