Garage, done...

So Charlie's summer project is finally complete, which is a good thing because it's fall now right? To his credit he finished a couple of weekends ago, I just haven't uploaded any of the pictures... He took on painting the garage and the finished product looks pretty awesome. You may be thinking, "How hard is it to paint a garage?". If you are thinking this you don't know my husband at all. He painstakingly sanded, primed and painted (2 coats of course) the entire garage. To say it was a bit of a mess is an understatement, it had been neglected for who knows how long...

We used the garage as a test so we could pick the color we want to paint the house in the spring, which I must say I was a little nervous about (painting a room in one thing, painting an entire house is whole other story!). We wanted gray, but not a blue gray, which proved a little difficult to find. But the color we ended up with is perfect. Its Amherst Gray from Benjamin Moore's Historical Colors (my go-to color palate, just look at my house). Anyways, here are some before and after pictures that will help you appreciate all of the work Charlie has done.
