Dining Room Goes Green

In honor of St. Patty's Day, I thought I would paint our Dining Room green. How's that for holiday spirit? Technically, it is Glidden's Forest Khaki....really just a hint of green. Here is a before:

It's not in the budget right now...but someday it will be mine. Until the, we will be spray painting the current one black.

Now, also in honor of the holiday, I will drink a glass of wine. Cheers!
