John drove up to Chalotte this weekend, and we moved a big load of my stuff down to Alabama- and then we got to work on the house!! One thing we really wanted to do was change the grout color in the kitchen. The previous owner had put down beautiful new tile, but we were not crazy about the peachy/pinky grout color. So I got a grout stain/seeler at a local tile company, and John and I tediously had to paint all of the grout by hand :). It took a few days, and we now have sore hands and knees- but we LOVE the result....I am not sure if pics will do it justice but I will post some anyways...
Here is a picture of the kitchen headed towards the back of the house:
And the other directon, headed to the laundry room and garage:
Here are pictures of the before grout-
And the after- no pink, and it made a HUGE difference!
And here is John working so hard on that grout!!
Our next few projects include tearing down the wallpaper and painting in both bathrooms-
Stay tuned :)
