We had just gotten all our art hung and now we had to take it down. To prepare for painting we swept, scraped off clay, vacuumed and washed where needed and puttied a hundred nail holes. When we broke for lunch, we had take-out that gave us a wonderful message. All prepped and ready for paint. However, I made one HUGE mistake. We are using up paint that was either too light or two dark in the house. I should have mixed it all together before painting. Instead, I just mixed a pint of too dark with a gallon of too light but then I didn't have enough of one color to keep that mix going. Oh well. I'll just have to figure something out.
