Sunday, (Not So) Fun Day - But We Accomplished a Lot.

Sunday started off with another coat of paint, finishing off the dark blue wall and starting the yellow walls in the bathroom. I do like how the yellow and blue go together in the bathroom:


We followed that up with Church and then a trip to Ikea, at which point we finally discussed how these rooms are going to be lit (the Master Bedroom does not have any built-in lighting, though the bathroom does). We wound up having to compromise - Brianna got final say on the design, and Brian gets to automate all the lighting in the room. 

There will be a future post on lighting automation - I'm pretty excited to get started, and parts should start arriving this week.

After Ikea, we spent the rest of the afternoon and evening painting. Here are the results:



I'm hoping to get an actual panorama posted, but for now these will have to do. 

Things that remain to be painted: The walls in the water closet and the ceiling in the main bathroom. Some touch-up work is also required on all of the walls.

One thing I definitely should have done differently, and will do differently going forward: Paint the ceilings first, so any splatter can be covered over with primer.
