So now we have two more coats to go on the wall (we're painting it a deep red), but it's almost done! A one day job is now on it's 4th week. Gotta love home improvement. Not done, but at least you can get an idea of the color. Also, can anyone give me tips on how to photograph red paint? They all look orange to me, but the paint is actually a deep blue red.
