Well, I had the bathroom doorway from the master bedroom taped off for two years before I finally finished painting that hallway, so you won't be the first to do it later. And primer really is your friend.

Actually, although painting is annoying and messy, it's also kind of fun. After years of living under my parents' roof with their mandated room colors, and then years in rentals with institutional cream walls, it felt *SO* good to actually paint rooms different colors! Sure, the cats' bedroom is a weird green/yellow depending on the light. And the powder room is very, very pink. But I *LOVE* my yellow bedroom and the warmth of my butter-colored main floor. Painting the rooms really made the place feel like mine and erased any residual essence of the prior owner.

Yes, I'm a paint fanatic.
