Officially, the paint’s name is “Rustic Adobe.” It’s a Sherwin-Williams color. Sharon and Terry have been working on selecting the wall color for some time. I admit that it does go well with everything else in the kitchen. Terry ordered three 8″ x 10″ samples of the color to tape on the wall for the final color evaluation.
Janelle came home from working at camp this week. She looked at the samples on the wall and said, “That’s the Band-Aid color.” She then decided to get a Band-Aid for comparison and to post it in the wall next to the paint sample. You can see the image below. Ah, you just have to love her creativity. I did. Sharon wasn’t so pleased.
Yes. I did get the window in yesterday. Yes. It was really hot outside.
Today was a day of doing “little” things. The largest was to add some 3/4″ plywood to the floor under part of the floor. I also did some mudding in the garage, tore down the plastic “walls,” removed the cardboard that had been protecting the floors, vacuumed the kitchen and garage, touched up some paint in the basement, returned some excess electrical boxes, and painted the kitchen ceiling.
