I can not tell you how excited I am that I was chosen by Glidden Gallon's (#gliddengallons) to do a porch makeover! Our sleeping porch is, for those that don't know me in real life, the summer bedroom of our daughter and has needed a spiffing up for some time. She spends most of her summer working as a camp counselor at Girl Scout camp, so sleeping outside without air conditioning doesn't seem to bother her and I think she likes the modicum of privacy in our teeny tiny cottage.
We will be painting the walls and trim and are looking at a bold cream and black. Those purple walls, gone! That red door, gone! We can't wait to go to Walmart and pick out the paint and trim color. Today I tweeted with @glidden_paint and they agreed that we should use exterior paint. The whole Brilliance line at Walmart in the paint department is new and I am excited to try it.
First though... before I even go shop for this I have to have my friend Kath come over. She is an expert colorist and she can help us pick out the three colors that we are going to use.
Stay posted! Next I will post about the inspiration for the room and where I am going with it and share with you what Kath says to do - always trust good paint and good friends. I'm lucky, I have both.
Note: This shop has been compensated as part of a social shopper insights study for Collective Bias. All of the opinions, work, and crazy painting days ahead of us are all mine. You can pay me to do something, but you can't make me say something!
