Gimme a couple weeks and I'll set it straightened out!
An ongoing blog following a young married couple as they renovate their railroad apartment in Brooklyn, New York and a crazy falling down farmhouse up in the Catskills. Both husband and wife work full-time jobs each day, so almost all of their projects will be squeezed into any free second each night and every weekend. Hence the name: After-Dinner Design, though come to think of it, maybe we should change it to "So Tired Design"...)

Stairway to Heaven, revisited.
Believe it or not, we managed to cram a fair amount of home improvement into the 30 hours we were up at our house this weekend, including, but not limited to, painting a chocolate brown trim down both sides of our painted stair runner. This taps into the painted chocolate brown floor we now have running through the upstairs' hallway and bathrooms, so it's a nice tie-in from the upstairs (chocolate) and the downstairs (the green-grey from the kitchen cabinets was the source for the color of the runner up the stairs...)
Granted, it's still a work in progress, as I've got to go back up and tidy up the inevitable paint-tape leaks (there were plenty...) but if you squint your eyes, you can see that it's gonna be awesome eventually.
Gimme a couple weeks and I'll set it straightened out!

I like that idea. As I go from room to room, I often find myself switching from warm to cool colors without thinking about it. That works to bring them back together.
