Wow we have been busy! We moved AGAIN! Our house sold in 4 days! Yikes! It was bittersweet to say goodbye to our home on Palmer Green. We are excited though for the future and whatever it may hold. In the meantime with our house selling so quickly we are staying with my parents until we find our next home.

Goodbye Palmer Green. You were a great home! (these were the pictures done for our realtor to use)

doors, doors, and more doors!

I always wanted to have all black interior doors.  I love the contrast it brings into a home. I was a little scared of going solid black so I did a little research on other homes that had painted interior doors and came up with a couple colors I liked. I wanted something a little softer than the harsh contrast of white trim, beige/gray walls and black so I found a great dark brownish black color - Night Horizon BM

Here was my inspiration picture… (from Maria Beck Design) 

I went to the hardware store, got the paint and came home ready to tackle 20 some doors! CRAZY! 
Well, I didn't love the color when I started painting the back of the front door. It was way to brown so I took it back and asked if they would put a little more black in the paint. They did and it was SO much better. 
It took me a long time to get all the doors painted. I hate to admit but the downstairs doors where done for probably a couple months before I even started the upstairs. Oh well, who goes upstairs anyways!
