This hallway has so many doors and is fairly dark so I wanted to give it new life. Then I painted the bottom white and the top Behr Light French Gray.
So I primed the doors with Bulls Eye 123 Primer and then used a scuff-defense enamel in Benjamin Moore Sage Wisdom. I can’t stop painting things this pretty green color. I painted the playroom, the front door and my bedroom ceiling the same color. It’s putting the hours of mundane work in that make a difference in the end.
Then I thought wallpaper might be fun, but when I looked around at the rest of our house, I knew white would be the right choice. It’s a slight gray white that doesn’t let the walls play yellow in any light. And by the way, I had these Benjamin Moore paints mixed at Home Depot by telling them the name. It helps to have to code handy on your phone as well from the BM site.
And then I decided to take things one step further and paint the old hinges black. And I’m still loving my tiny little cleaning closet at the end of the hall that I made over last year!
