Whitewashed

2 of the workers sanded, primed and painted the living/dining areas ceiling yesterday.  What a difference a fresh coat of paint makes!  And now the workers are working on the walls.  I'm quite excited to see how the white paint will affect the whole living/dining areas.  We've never used white before--our walls have always been in cream/off-white.  And I've always thought that if we ever get to repaint our living/dining rooms, we'd choose to paint them in Tuscan yellow. But after seeing so many lovely photos of white rooms with bright colored accents in magazines and blogs, we knew we'd fallen in love with the non-color and its possibilities.  We're not letting go of our Tuscan roots, though.  The shorter wall in our dining area will be a homage to one of Italy's most beautiful regions.

Here are the latest photos of the renovation.


Here I am, in my "morning suit," checking out and asking about the shelving under the sink.
