The floors in the cottage are all sanded and ready to go. I was able to have Sherwin Williams paint match the old green on the floors upstairs. The color is gorgeous and we will repaint them this rich dark green that reminds me of grass.

The wonderful thing is that Greg and I agree on colors and treatments for the bedrooms upstairs. I really liked the distressed look of painted shiplap, but because I have neither the time nor the inclination to paint the boards and then sand it off, we are going with color washes upstairs on the walls and ceilings. It might be a lot of color, but for a Maine cottage for a week, I find that most people get cheered by bright colored rooms.



This blue with the green floors is my personal favorite.
