Renovating an old house by a musical couple who want to live there the rest of their lives.
Head-Over-Heels
The little bedroom is officially painted.
The ceiling is painted here. And I applied 2 coats of Head-Over-Heels by Benjamin Moore to the walls.
This is a very pretty color and goes great with the White Sage ceiling but it’s a color that changes depending on the light. And as for pink, it’s very subtle. Love it.
My shoulders ache, my hands hurt and this is the smallest room in the house. The renovation has only begun; stamina, girl, stamina.
How about a little teaser; I also put down the rug.
Slowly but surely. (Don’t worry about the large rectangular hole in the wall we have a register cover for it.) I didn’t know I would love pink so much!
Welcome to The Glade, where the second generation of renovations has just begun and the mania about our home, music and other passions fill our days and nights.
We’re Charlie and Jo in the music world; Mary Jo and Charles to family; and JoJo and Charlie to each other. We are renovating a midcentury house in a Victorian historic district where we want to live there the rest of our lives. It's a 1946 house located in Maryland. We were married in this house.
Thus far (pre-blog) we refinished cabinets, added a window seat (still working on the cushion), rearranged a wall in the guest house due to sink/vanity replacement, planted a vegetable garden, and other quick and not-so-quick fixes. So this latest zeal for construction is the result of my having lived here since 1997 and feeling a need to ready the house for the next chapter and beyond.

I love that rug and the pink is very soothing, great choice!
