Foyer, hallway, and stairwell refresh

by Steve Bullock on August 18, 2022

The original color was Sherwin Williams Natural Tan. Looking at them, I thought the foyer, hallway and stairwell would be the equivalent of painting two rooms. I was wrong. In most cases, it has taken one roll of masking tape per room to prep for painting. Those areas took three rolls and the beginnings of a fourth. They also took three (and the beginnings of a fourth) gallons of paint to complete.

The change to Sherwin Williams Barely Peach is subtle in the photos, but significant, in a positive way, in person. The foyer, hallway and stairwell are much warmer and more inviting. It also bridges the pink in the living room and the navy of the dining room well.
