It was a busy weekend at the Edmonds' household (or should I say the Edmonds Inn?):
Our friend Leigh stayed with us for a weekend visit and wedding dress fitting. Ryan's brother Chad and his girlfriend Carly came in town to help us with some projects around the house (bookshelf painting, electric dog fence installation, pressure washing, stripping the deck, etc...whew!) Chad's friend and his girlfriend from Knoxville crashed at our house for the night after the Braves game on Friday
I got up early Saturday morning to be sure that I had time to complete my bookshelf transformation, as promised. I am so pleased with the results. Check out the project in pictures below:
Ta da! I applied two coats of a soft green paint.

Before:
I started by clearing off all of the accessories and then removing the shelves themselves.
I then sanded the wall, dusted, and taped off the edges.
Ta da! I applied two coats of a soft green paint.
After:
(It's hard to see the green in this picture. I think I used the flash. I will try to snap a few more. It's a subtle change-- but you can tell in person. It looks great!)
