Over two days, we primed and painted the basement. We decided to use the left over paint from the guest bedroom (Pittsburgh Paints in First Frost) for the basement walls, hoping the color would brighten up the dark room. After we finished that project, M and I ordered carpet for the upstairs and basement. We are now waiting for the installation so we can finally unpack and start living in all quarters of the house.
