with all the wood, trim, and plaster walls it made sense to have our friend and fantastic professional painter, Stacy Karonis (Broad Spectrum Interior Painting - 773.895.3838) and her all women crew do the work. all we had to do was pick the colors.
we wanted the formal dinning room to be classy, warm, and feel a bit more on the victorian style than the earthy arts and crafts. think chandelier with hanging glass prisms (michele is not sold on the chandelier yet).
so we went with pittsburgh paint - chilled wine (base) and heavy cream (trim) and purchased a new rug on ebay. we were very happy with the end result and our continually keeping our eye out at flee markets for that perfect finishing piece, the chandelier. what the pictures don't show is all of the cracks and dripping dried paint that was cleaned up.
