Stairway Updates



April of 2008

This part of the house is obviously one of the first things we see when we walk in the door, but somehow, I had gotten very good at simply ignoring it. John pushed to make this the next project we tackle, and with the help of a Christmas present from my parents, we did the unthinkable. We hired a painter. We found a guy on Angie's List, Kris Siskoski, who happens to live in our neighborhood. He gave us a good estimate, we stared at the Benjamin Moore fan deck for a few days, and he got started.
Most of the first floor is a bright white. We wanted something warm enough to work with the red we have a few place in our living room. We knew we needed flat paint because even with the amazing job Kris did to resurface the walls, they still look at bit like they've had a case of the pox.
