Please excuse the varying states unpacked-ness (i.e. mess), lack of organization, decor, window treatments, etc. We're working on it. Oh, and please forgive my less than high-quality photos- I was rushing.
General painting notes- we color matched most of the colors to Behr Premium Plus (paint + primer)- it was totally worth the money, saved lots of extra time and coats. Also we painted the hallways and stairway- peal essence, basically a creamy, with a tint of tan/yellow, shade of white. Didn't think you need a picture of that.
Walls- Martha Stewart Driftwood Gray (the color above the mirror is more accurate, its a mid-cool gray that looks a bit blue at times)
Ceiling- Glidden Chilly Morning (it's a blue white, more blue than it looks in the photo)
Walls- above the chair rail-Glidden Spring Cactus, below- Glidden Pale Shadow
Ceiling- Glidden Chilly Morning (it's a blue white, more blue than it looks in the photo)
Walls- Glidden Water Chestnut (yes, it is very close to the color that was there, we would have left it but didn't know what color it was and touch ups were needed)
Ceiling- Pearl Essence
Walls- Glidden Tropical Surf (it's a little brighter than in the photo)
Ceiling- Pearl Essence
Walls and Ceiling- Glidden Celery Stick
Walls and Ceiling- Glidden Sea Spray
Walls and Ceiling- Pearl Essence
Walls- Martha Stewart Faded Ink (it's a funky spot so it was hard to get good lighting- it isn't has bright as it looks)
Ceiling- Pearl Essence
Walls- Glidden Water Chestnut (it was supposed to be a yellow, but I hated it after the first coat and we had extra water chestnut from the den)
Ceiling- Shell White
Walls- Glidden Music Room (this color changes a lot during the day, so it's hard to the explain the color)
Ceiling- Glidden Tailwind
What we didn't paint- kitchen, basement (including laundry room, and bathroom), and guest bathroom. They all need more extensive work before painting can occur.
Up next: beyond paint- other changes we've made in the house
