I did some painting this weekend. I figured if Stefanie...with her brand new house, 8 kids, and weekly trips ot Iowa for casting...could get her whole house painted in an afternoon, I really have no excuses.So the piano room and Matthew's bathroom are now finished! I think I could move more quickly if I wouldn't paint the ENTIRE room with a 1 1/2 " brush. But the truth is I enjoy trimming...I was born a trimmer...Scott calls it a sickness, but I call it love. No blue tape, no drop cloth, just me and my 1 1/2"-er just trimming away.
I've posted a photo of my color palette so you Hue Queens can have a good laugh at the fact that I'm not exactly rockin' the color wheel! I like to refer to myself as "monochromatic mama."

I LOVE Greys and Splash my room with deep reds and earthy greens.
One of my favorite combos .
It will look great! I may need to hire you to come and paint mine! :)

I hate to paint! LOL, I do love the monochromatic look! That juice looks delish!!
boy, tish, i have to laugh at your tactics to avoid vegetable eating! :) oh, from your last post -- i recommend "simple suppers". it's a moosewood cookbook. if you're not into tofu, you could substitute chicken. my husband is not so into tofu. he had the brilliant idea of checking cookbooks out from the library first to give them a test drive. love it.
Love the colors....hey, you are what you are...a ROCKIN momochromatic mama! It was a big step for me to pick the 'daring, cutting edge' blue for my dining room, so I can relate:-).
The colors look very soothing. Hey, where are the pictures of the actual rooms??? Would love to see them.
Got check out this juice. We shope at TJ's but have never seen this.
Painting? You go girl!
I love the palette!! Just throw in some punchy color with accessories. You are smart to go neutral for your walls. Otherwise you'll get sick of the color. Trust me, I know. :)
I am totally going to try that juice!!!
