and I'm not sure I like the color. :doh I wanted something different and it's definitely different. It won't really look good until we paint the living room a darker brown, but that's going to be a huge job (tall ceilings, very open house plan).
I hope it grows on me very quickly. :nails

Impatient me started painting the living room/foyer because the green looked really baaaad next to the old color. We're painting it kind of a cocoa color:

I LOVE that color! So cool and spacious-looking. Absolutely gorgeous. How do you get up by the ceiling? I've tried several things and always end up with color on my ceiling. :mad

Thank you Haley! :O The best tip I have for good trimming is a good brush (I like Purdy brushes), and then just go in a straight line as long as you can. I'm a pretty good trimmer, but horrible taper, so I don't tape. ;)
