More drywall work and painting

Nothing exciting going on with the kitchen other than more drywall work.  The guy (Balla) is working today (Saturday) and then one more day on Monday with the final sanding and then painting on Tuesday before they start cabinet installation on Wednesday.  In the meantime Chris needed a project to do so he wanted to "freshen" up the paint in the office.  I still liked the color but I guess after 14 years you should switch it up!

I decided to go with BM Silver Marlin on the walls and BM Wolf Gray on the accent wall behind the bookshelves.  I am also trying a new paint from BM called Advance on the bookshelves.  It is supposed to be a harder finish and is good for painting cabinets and trim.  It takes 4-6 hours to dry and you have to wait 16 hours between coats for it to cure and then sand lightly also.  It will be interesting to see how it holds up and if it works I may try it on the old kitchen cabinets now in the basement.

Works well with color in entryway but I may have to change this up too as it all has to be repainted!

One more coat needed on dark gray but I like it so far!

I always have helpers!
