Painting started today. We're going with a tan that's "the same" as what our hallways already are. It's a different paint since they couldn't use the information from the old paint can, but the sample Jessica chose is similar enough. There's no way you can do a side-by-side comparison so it doesn't really matter if it's off a little.
It's not easy to see the exact color in these photos, but I like it. It will definitely take more than one coat given the dark grey that some of the walls started out as.
One downside to all the sanding was that a great deal of the dust floated up the stairs and into the kitchen, dining room, living room, foyer and family room. We had some plastic sheeting up to help in keeping the kitties out during the night, but it wasn't secured very well when the workers were here. On the first day when we put it up, I did notice that the plastic sheeting was blowing into the kitchen, indicating the general airflow. Jessica cleaned up a lot already, but there is still some more to do. Hopefully Jameson doesn't stay awake late into the night again.
