Well I was until these crazy flu-like symptoms started up on Sunday night. Grrrr. We’ve all been sick around here, including our little girl. So needless to say, I haven’t accomplished much this week except eating pints of Blue Bell ice cream. :( BUT, I will show you what I am going to try and attempt to finish today…
The fake wainscoting. The office will be complete once I put all the boxes up. Y’all didn’t know I painted the bottom out white did ya? :) So if I am able to tolerate the nail gun with my pounding headache, it should be finished today. But then of course I will still have to caulk and paint the boxes the same white color as the wall, so it will be at least a 2 day project.
Oh, and an update to my pity post the other day…Y’all were right. Once I started accessorizing and hanging things on the walls, the room really came together, and I LOVE the paint color. :) Yay!! I took that rug back also. Hubby didn’t like it, so we won’t have a rug for now. It still looks good without a rug, so that’s a plus too. There is one I want to try from Overstock though…maybe one day. I’m just so glad I like the room and won’t have to repaint it. <high five!>
So that’s about it. Just wanted to give y’all a brief little update. :)

Feel better soon! I hate being sick!! So glad the room came together and you are happy with it. I have since seen a few pictures of houses with those colors near each other and I think they work well. Good luck with the wainscoting! Okay, back to the dungeon (basement) to continue decrapifying. I am on a mission!
Decorchick! says
Thanks Lauren! Yea, I think it’s a trend using those colors and I didn’t even know it. Sweet! Be safe in the dungeon. :)

Hope you get to feelin better soon. Can’t wait to see your wainscoting. I may try that in my dining room (in several years) it always looks so nice and really makes the room. Be blessed, Karyl =0)
Decorchick! says
Thanks so much Karyl. I hope you do it soon. It really makes a big difference. :)

I have fake wainscotting in my living and dining room, and I plan to also add it to my entry way. It just brightens everything up so nicely and makes it look classier!
Decorchick! says
Yes, exactly! :)

Decorchick! says

I think the cold and flu season has hit! You are about the 5th person I “know” that is coming down with something. I hope you feel better soon. Can’t wait to see the faux wainscoting. But don’t over do it, it will be there for you tomorrow as well.
