instead of overusing my F5 key during this Kickstarter, I've been amusing myself with the much needed Hall Way repaint.

On one of my many trips to Reaper HQ, Darling Hubby decided to surprise me by painting the hallway. He was in a bit of a rush and the prep job was not his finest, and we grew to loathe the shade of green that was on the wall. Sweet Wm's week-long scout backpacking trip was postponed and DH had the vacation time scheduled, so....

I dragged my minions (Darling Hubby & Sweet Wm) into helping.

The cutting in is finished and the contrasting greens are visible. Sid, the dog who was born an indoor cat, is not thrilled that his house is experiencing chaos.

Is that a Crown Royal "dice" bag hanging on the wall?

Pretty neat pattern, heck beats off-white (like my stairway is....)

So elegant. I love the colors and shapes, especially the sproingy little leaf tendril things.

I always wondered who bought those flat bottles.

I really like the pattern. What variety of grape is it?

[ladystorm]

actually didn't buy either of the bottles. friends gifted them to us.
I patterned it after zinfandel old vines.
Nabbed this picture & a handful of others for reference off of 'net.
