Have a wonderful rest of the week!

What Can Be..

Winter seems to have dragged on.  It has been relentless.  Right now it's snowing again..

I know a lot of people are tired and it seems like spring will never come.

I am here to tell you it will.  Change your perspective.  You see underneath all that snow something is brewing..

And soon winter will seem like it never existed..

Reminds me of the beautiful wedding in Twilight.  Yes, I do love the movies.

Are you anxious to see the flowers and hear the birds?  I know I am : )

Bringing Spring Color : Foyer

Good Afternoon!

I can totally feel spring in the air. Spring always brings a newness and I am bringing that into my foyer.

I am on attack and getting rid of my old wall color. It's time for something fresh and alive :)

You can see I have begun painting and the old color on the opposite wall. Benjamin Moore ( Pearl Gray) is my go to color. It has the underlying mint hue in it and I am in love. It gives just the right amount of contrast I need without going completely gray.

Wait til you see where the Tucson Teal is going...

Freshening Up

Good Morning!

I have gotten spring fever.  Yes, the restlessness I get when change is needed in my home.

A couple years ago we put in hickory flooring in our hallway, which I absolutely adore.  The paint color at the time I really liked and it went with just about everything.

Time has changed my mind.  I found that the yellowy undertone of the paint was picking up in the flooring.  I really don't like it.  It started making me feel sad.  Color can so affect your mood.

I have been so inspired by some interiors that have a lighter hue and the spaces feel so clean and fresh.

So here I am painting a light color on my wall (which by the way scares me...)

First coat down and today I put second coat on.  I will carry this color into my foyer and living room.  The hallway already feels so much better and so do I.

Just in case you're wondering I am using Benjamin Moore "Pearl Gray"

Have you caught spring fever yet?

How are you sprucing up your home for spring?

BTW..

Today I finalize on trim pieces for tile for client.  Can't wait to see the installation on that.

So Happy You Came

Spring has officially come : )

Time to swing the doors open and welcome her in..
