tour the enclosed porch

i should have taken some pictures of the porch
before i started painting -- so you could see the before-and-after differences
before i painted it -- some of the woodwork was a dark greasy stain
and some of it was a dirty, dark golden yellow
the floor was covered with orange and green paisley carpeting
 
 
the east side of the porch  the east side of the porch
 
i painted all of the wood bright white
to brighten up the dark old room
it took about seven coats of glossy white paint
 
 
east side of the porch finished
 
the east side of the room is painted
and decorated, i made the curtains
we had new carpeting installed

i took care of the problem with mini blinds
