Not quite four years ago, when we bought our house, I wanted a gorgeous red Victorian room. We had the antique furniture to put into it, so our guest room was painted a lovely dark claret red, with a beautiful border.
Now, however, the whole purpose of the room has completely changed. Lori took the furniture back, and the room is now our office/playroom and my scrapbooking area. So the time has come to update and refresh the room to reflect the new purpose. Not to mention building new storage options so we can better use the space.
We began the process of painting this morning, and we've gotten the wall that's going to hold my dedicated scrap area primed, ready to put the wall color on. My scrap area is going to be built-in, with rolling carts underneath the one end for my printers. Here's a pic of the wall before and after priming.
