Entry way and trim work

Today I repainted in the entry way.  It just looked dingy with all of the nicks in the trim paint etc and kept putting off the painting until the children were in bed one night, but, by the time I get children to bed, the last thing that I want to do is start a project, so, today while they were out playing in the snow, I painted trim.  I am really pleased with how it turned out, it makes such a difference to how much cleaner it looks just by getting rid of the nicks.

Since I used the same paint for the trim as the kitchen cupboards, while the paintbrush was out and ready, I also went into the kitchen and touched up the cupboards.  What a difference it makes to get rid of the scuffs and marks.  Now, when the kitchen is clean, it will actually look clean.

Halfway through my project, I realized that I should have taken a "before picture"... I guess I will have to use the one in my mind:)
