Amazon Stone
August 18th, 2009 at 11:00 am . Posted in Home Decor .Finally another project completed! We were indecisive of what color to paint the back wall where the TV is in the living room. First I tried light yellow and that was ugly, then I tried light ocean blue/green and I really liked the color but it didn’t look good with everything else.
Saturday night we went to Home Depot and Tyler came across this one color that was a purple/grayish color and would not believe me when I told him it was purple. Right before Tyler told the guy what color we wanted, I found this beautiful ‘Amazon Stone’ gray color and we knew that was the color we wanted!
Tyler says he is the worst painter ever and I agree. He kept messing up on the edges and we both knew I was good at it but I didn’t like how stressed out I get while painting the edges. I wish I kept track of how many times Tyler was swearing as he messed up. After all he reminds me of Tim Allen from Home Improvement.
Sunday morning it took us a few hours to get the TV mounted on the wall because we struggled with finding where the studs were located in the wall. We didn’t want the cords to be visible so we cut up a small hole behind the TV and dropped them down to another hole at the bottom.
But there was one small problem – we didn’t want to see the plugs so we found some scraps we had in the garage and painted them the same color.
Now the TV area is completed! Except for decorating which I will do soon.

The TV looks pretty centered! It came out wonderfully. I love the Amazon Stone color as well. It fits the television perfectly. Very minimalistic, modern, and sleek! Tyler did well.
