So um..pinterest. Need I say more!? The hubs was looking over my shoulder one day and saw this picture below, (and to my surprise) was all, woah, let's do that (to our gigantic wall that I never know what to do with) in our living room. And since I have such good taste and pinned it for myself, I said hell yeah! So off to Lowe's we went. We selected Valspar Brand Hazy Stratus for the light grey and Seine for the darker grey tan color.
So I brought out my high school math skills, protractor, ruler, common sense (although I am lacking significantly in this department due to postpartum, yeah postpartum). And the hubs and I really tried hard not to kill each other. We are both first borns, and therefore know everything about everything, so working together is always peachy.
See that BIG ugly wall of depression! Oh and, hi hubby!
Yes, the taping did take forever, but hey, look below. I think it was worth it!
TA-DA! Well the "edge lock" tape fell into the false advertising category, but otherwise I think it looks pretty bad (like, the good bad)! I'll be touching up in the next couple weeks, and I'll share the whole living room sometime soon. Also, I have a little starburst mirror DIY I want to get going on in the meantime.
Any space in your home that just drove you crazy, until you decide to go BOLD?!
