Thanks, Shavonda!

Thanks, Michelle! Sorry for the delay in response. I do have some painting tips, I used the same method that I used here on my painted kitchen cabinet doors. Use a good primer and you will be good to go. My new doors did turn out a little streaky with the final coat, but I believe it’s because I was using three year old paint. I plan on doing one final coat in new paint (the same color) and I’m almost positive I will lose the streaks. I did use rustoleum universal all surface paint in flat black for the hardware – it’s the best. Now I’ve seem some naysayers out there who say not to use spray paint on commonly used fixtures because it will chip, but we haven’t had any trouble with it. Good luck!

Thanks, Caroline! Those chairs are part of a set that I got from Ikea a few years ago. With a little love they have held up pretty well :)

Thanks, Jennifer! I don’t know why it took me so long to paint that white door, I really like it dark!

Hey Staci – Yeah, paint is a miracle worker, isn’t it?

Hey Anne, Yeah, dur, I should’ve mentioned that, eh? Our garage lighting situation has no switches. Now if I was handy with electrical stuff I might consider installing some switches, but since I’m not, I’m sticking with the motion activated light scene. Our lights are dusk to dawn as well, they go on a brighter setting when activated by motion, but are always on in the evenings. Good luck finding and installing yours! You should let me know what you pick!
