They are almost finished and although there was an initial lump in the bottom of my stomach about the color not being quite right when we first arrived today, at second glance, it's wonderful.
We are just so used to looking at the grey stucco undercoat that the happy yellow was a surprise.
In this picture you can see that it is not at all the same color as our neighbors house, who also used the same builder. Their home is more brown.
Once the cast stone pieces get added and the garage doors are painted, we are going to smile every time we pull into our driveway.
Now, I will also say that I was a bit disappointed today.
Shane told me the painters were there...which of course in my mind translated to, "The painters are there! The painters are there! The inside will be full of color! I'll get to see the colors we selected! I'll get great pictures for the blog! The house will have some personality!"
However, I forgot about all of the prep work.
In reality, this is what "the painters are there" looked like today...
They papered the floor and wrapped up the tub.
Thrilling, isn't it?
Now, this was exciting...
The faux finisher was also there and she was working on the powder bath. The walls in there will eventually be a silvery color, but underneath the shimmer will be a random crocodile print texture.
That's right, crocodile. Trust me, it's very cool. You will just have to see it.
Hopefully, by this time tomorrow, at least some of the walls will have color on them.
Now we are off to meet the granite guy to pick out sinks and random smaller pieces of granite.
