So in the mist of the all of the summer fun, family reunions and family that is in town, I decided that my house needed some painting. My great room was badly needing a fresh coat of paint. I didn’t even change the color but I can’t tell you how much better it looks. My dear Mom in Law helped me out and we were able to cover a ton of square feet in one afternoon. I decided to tackle my bed room on my own during nap time. It took a lot longer than one nap time but I’m finally done and very happy with the results. This picture doesn’t really do it justice. It’s really not so bright green.
Here is a shot of my freshly painted great room. I was thinking of getting new curtains. These cotton panels just aren’t doing it for me. I’m not sure what I want though. What color would look good in this room? What style- traditional, modern, maybe country? Something heavy? Something light? I guess I just want something classy. Nothing I’ve seen has tickled my fancy. Any suggestions?

Love both colors, but really love the color in your room! Great job! I have no suggestions for you curtains, though. ;o)

I love red stripe panel curtains made of cotton with that color paint. Is that room a light blue?

You are amazing. You are always doing fun projects. The paint looks great.

Way to go! Both your rooms look really great. Hmmm, about the curtains, I think a patterned window treatment would look fun in that room, maybe some bold vertical stripes with lots of color in a taffeta material. I guess you would just have to find the perfect the perfect fabric, and then they would be so easy to make.

Wow!! I love the green and the blue! I wish I had home decorating sense. But alas. Here I am with the same color of paint on my walls that two owners ago put up, even though I don’t actually like it.
