Upstairs hallway transformation

Paint has to be one of the easiest ways to transform a space! As you will see in the photos below, our upstairs hallway was extremely dark. As I have previously mentioned about our home, it was a bank owned property before we purchased it. The bank came in prior to us purchasing it and replaced the flooring with a brown/beige (not my style!) carpet and a fresh coat of beige paint. Even with these changes, the hallway just felt dark. We decided to carry the refinished hardwoods upstairs and used a lighter shade of gray paint, Behr Natural Gray. The trim work and doors were painted in Behr Polar Bear. My plan is to eventually replace all of the doors with the arched, two panel doors we installed on the first floor, but paint was a quick fix. Since this photo was taken, I have added a dark teal, trellis runner in the hall. I have yet to hang anything on the walls, but I am debating a wall full of mirrors! Until next time!
