Downstairs Hallway

When we bought the house, the entire downstairs was a bright (I'm talking sunflower) yellow. Since our first weekend of ownership, we have been working to change that!

We painted the living room and dining room first. This past week we tackled the entry way, the hallway, and stairs. 

We had previously painted the baseboards white, but finally finished the job this week. 

We painted the hallway and stairs "toasted oatmeal" by Behr. I love the way it looks! 

Josh bravely painted the stairs using his brand new ladder. 

My wonderfully math-minded husband graciously hung up family photos - now it is finally feeling like home. 

Here is the photo collage in the hallway, on the side of the stairs. 

This mirror and frame hang on the bottom of the stair landing.

I also sprayed the metal elements with rustolem. Yeah for an easy fix to remove gold!
