Last week our local Home Hardware had a grand re-opening sale. One of the great deals was Beauti-Tone Velvet paint at just over $20 a gallon after tax. It's normally double that price. We made sure we could buy now and tint (add colour) later and bought ten gallons.
This Saturday we popped in to see what colour's we liked and they had the semi-gloss on sale for $30 + tax per gallon. So we picked up a gallon of that.
All the paint chip colours are for Beauti-Tone paints. We are going pretty neutral and in my "usual" colour pallette!! Not 100% sure what room will be what, but I think the green F037-0 will be the powder room. CZ13-0 will be the dining room, it's a dark room. CZ15-4 will be the rest of the main floor. I am thinking CZ16-4 for our bedroom, or at least one wall, as we have an extra high ceiling in there. As I said that's what I am thinking today, by tomorrow it could be completely different!
I submitted out Year End list to the builder last week, of things that need attention that should be covered under the warranty. They have until the middle of October to complete these jobs {{{SIGH}} Of course some of the things that need attention are walls and ceilings; so although I can paint some area's I cannot paint them all.
I am however going to start on the trim, as there is a lot I can get done when the whole house needs painting. I always seem to start decorating when the hot weather arrives. At least we have a/c so I'll just hike that up.
I have had good luck with this brand of paint and it doesn't hurt that when you buy six cans of paint you get one free. I have one more to buy then I get a can free.
Anyone else decorating?
