The Painting of an Entire House #9

First of all, the title of this post suggests that this is the 9th time we painted an entire house.  I want to assure you that we have painted many more than 9 entire houses this year.  This is just the 9th time that I chose to take some before and after pictures and share them with you. 

Even though we painted this whole house, I only have pictures of one room.  Of course it is the most impressive room that I wanted to show.  It shows everything that you need to see.  It is also 2 angles of the the same room.  The "before" pictures show how we prep the furniture and cut in the edges.  You can also see the repairs we made on the ceiling and walls.  I assure you that we covered the floor with drop cloths shortly after I took these pictures.

The previous owners of this house chose to put an off-white (almost yellow) semi-gloss paint on the ceiling and the walls.  This new home owner had much better taste and wanted to update the look.  So we got to work and gave the house a fresh and more modern look.

We used very high quality paint from Sherwin-Williams.  The home owner requested that we use the  Duration line of paints with a matte finish on the walls and Pro-Classic on the trim.  We also used the ultra flat white ceiling paint, called Eminence.
