Being half way through the pregnancy, and wanting to accomplish as much as possible while I still feel good, I thought it would be a wonderful idea to repaint the hallway. There were toddler crayon marks all over and a general dirty look from being almost 3 years since we moved in and painted.
I fished out all my supplies from the garage. I found a leftover almost empty gallon of flat white, which is what was on the walls, and then I found another full gallon of white. Setting up shop was easy, and so was keeping my toddler out of the way while I got to work. Things were going great, that is, until I ran out of that small amount of flat white (which surprisingly covered a large area). Not thinking anything was wrong I reach for the second gallon. Well, that is about the time I decided to read the label better and I realized I was holding a gallon of SEMI GLOSS white. Of course, that wouldn't work. So, there sit the walls, half painted, and in need of a gallon of flat white. I plan to find some in the garage tomorrow, there must be some in there to allow me to finish my rather small hallway.
