Update 11/13 - Interior Paint (first coat) and Stain

Hey everyone! A quick update today: interior rooms now have their first coat of paint. Nearly all wood trim throughout the house is stained, as well. Also, sprinklers and well are installed.

Paint colors - - - 

Main living areas (including 2nd/3rd BRs): SW Latte 6108

Master bedroom: SW Svelte Sage 6164

Bathrooms and master bedroom closet: SW Universal Khaki 6150

Also, we have an official CLOSE DATE!!! 10:00 am on Friday, December 10. Brett and I are both taking Dec 10 off work, and I will be taking Monday the 13th as well. We've got plenty of friends and family who will be helping us move on Saturday/Sunday. It should be an easy move; we are using the garage at our apartment as a "staging area" to store all boxes, so we can just back a truck up to it, fill it, and be on our way. Yesterday, I finally got some packing done!!! We also took care of homeowners insurance this past week. Its 1,000% real to us now that we're moving in less than 4 weeks. This is a dream come true.

The green in the master turned out P.E.R.F.E.C.T. We originally chose the Svelte Sage, then second guessed ourselves and went looking for something new. Eventually, we came back to it. I've been sort of worried it would be too green, or an ugly green. In our personal opinion, it turned out beautiful! Calming, natural, clean.

Here's a sample of the khaki in the bathrooms. Sherwin Williams recommended we go "light" in the bathrooms, since it tends to make a small space feel more open. We wanted something that would be a natural flow from one room to the next - and I'm really pleased with this paint color, as moving from bathroom to main living areas is a nice color transition. Not too drastic but still a noticeable change.

Finally, here is the latte in main living areas. Latte is one of SW's #1 selling paints so we felt pretty comfortable with it. Its a rich color that will go with almost anything.

These next two pictures are pretty terrible quality, so sorry in advance. But, they show the stain on the pantry and fireplace. Its a nice deep brown that matches our cabinets.

Up next? Second coat of paint, electrical fixtures, and I would expect Star Lumber to start kitchen tile-work. After that, its flooring: carpet, wood, tile. 

As always, thanks for spending some time following this fun journey with us!
