Colors ! !

Yes, colors are here ! No more boring beige! I had to paint everything beige in the last house I sold to appeal to "a wider range of buyers." But, hey, this is my place now and I'm old and crazy, so here goes!

Family room, pale yellow. Also in the foyer, halls, second bedroom, and bathroom. You get 3 color choices, but I added 2 more for an extra fee. I figured it would be less expense and bother than to try to change colors later.

Oh yes, the GREEN thing again. The paint is a "low VOC" type, meaning very little smell now and little "off gassing" of volatile organic compounds in coming months.

Dining room. I tried to find a different color than the family room, but nothing seemed to work. Maybe later?

Studio, ahhhmmmm - - I'll make some "centered" pots in here! They also completely finish off the garage and paint it - it's this same color. (Open Air)

The master bedroom. I already have fabric for a matching bed spread and window treatments. Relaxing aqua kinda color. (Tidewater)



The guest bedroom - otherwise known as the kids room. They each claim it as their own! I have a bright pin striped fabric for the bedspread that has this "coral" color as one of the stripes. Quite a brave choice for me! Hunter said that he wanted "dark orange" - we won't tell him it's actually coral!
The first room as I come in from the garage, the laundry. Since the cabinets and washer/dryer will be white, I thought this denim color would set it off nicely. See how I'm only daring in the kids room and laundry room! Baby steps!
