Dining Room and Butler's Pantry

While I was home I tackled painting the Dining Room and Butler's Pantry, formerly the Parlour and Dining Room respectively. Dad and I moved everything out except the big china cabinet and sideboard, and covered those with plastic. On Saturday I got the Dining room painted twice and the Butler's Pantry painted once. I painted that room for the second time on Sunday morning. The colour is Farrow's Cream, a sunny cream colour that makes the rooms glow and added a lot of warmth. Dad and I also put curtains up in those rooms.
 
These are the "BEFORE" pictures...





 First coat is done on the Dining Room
 Then the Butler's Pantry
And everything is back where it belongs






 And we got all of the pictures back up


I am ready to order the trim for this opening, and all of the others that aren't finished yet. Wood Millers in Clyde River has a knife that matches the original trim, so all of the trim throughout the house will match.


One more project off the list!
