Smiley House 1st Floor "Before" Pictures

The first floor includes the kitchen, dining room, and living room. Carol, Becky and Becky's mom, Lynne, spent some time selecting wallpapers and hardwood flooring for each room.


We will paint all the trim in the house in an off white trying to stay in line with the original colors of the house, yet freshen it up. The ladies have chosen all of the wallpapers, which I think will look lovely in the house. You'll see the finished rooms upon completion. But for now, here's a peek at the first floor "before."

While studying the rooms a little more closely, I realized that the staircase really should be painted.  I considered a paint and stain combination, but the position of the spindles and the previously painted areas make that a little too complicated.  Painting the entire staircase will simplify the finish work.  A stair runner could be installed if the owners would like to dress them up a bit.  We are trying to keep costs down for the homeowners.
