Painting - Living Room and Kitchen

As soon as D got done painting the bedroom, we started painting the living room and kitchen. We had picked out the colors before we moved so we could get this done ASAP.
Painted rooms = feels like home.
The yellow in the kitchen (and soon to be in bathroom) is Mellow Yellow. I'll need to remember that the grey is called in the living room. The grey is Down Pour and it is perfection.

Living room painted! Love this shade of grey - looks like purple/blue in some light. Doesn't take away  from the brick.

Mellow Yellow!

Happy & Bright :)

Again, S organizes while D paints

Tryin my best to decorate among the piles...

D got the surf board up in the room

All painted!

Happy entrance to the apartment

Building Radiator Benches - Phase 1

Phase 1 - April 2012
The second D saw those huge windows with the radiators, he wanted to build radiator benches for us. In the studio we had no seating, so I was totally on board with this idea.
He came up with the plan and measurements all on his own, and they came out beautifully.
This project started in April and he has progressively worked on them over the next few months.
This is the first phase of the project.

D wanted to get the main building/sawing done first - before we moved in other furniture

Oh the joys of DIY in a NYC apartment haha
