Pretty! I think I've seen other pics of your living room before, right? Wasn't it you with that cool coffee table? I can't do dark colors in this house at all, the rooms are just too small, but that's a very pretty color.

Yes that is me with the cool coffee table. I agree in small spaces you need very light colors. In this house, because it is so open, it works.

My bedroom down by the Cape was a DEEP Cranberry color... very pretty and I had white beachy accents. But again, couldn't do something that dark here. Small house and small windows, so bad combo for dark colors. That's okay, it's a nice change doing light colors. My kitchen is a pale yellow, my dining room is a medium sage green; they were already those colors but I like them. It's the two bedrooms that are hideous. The first one, my office is bright baby girl pink, and the bedroom is/was that awful purple. It's like two kids had those rooms or something, I don't know. My office will be a you-know-what to repaint, because it's lined with huge bookshelves that go to the ceiling, so I'll have to bribe some men to move them, they weigh a ton.
The new bedroom I'm doing in a pale greenish-teal, and I'll have deep brown furniture and white accents.

Me too. Just never in a house I have lived in. Hasn't been the right house yet. Yet.

Me too, I lived in a house we rented that the living room was that color when we moved in. I really liked it. I don't even think I have pictures of it.

Well my ex's house was right near the beach, and had nice big rooms, so it was perfect. He gave me free reign to decorate how I wanted during the years I lived there. Kinda feels like a waste now that I'm gone and he's enjoying all my efforts, but oh well. At least now I have the satisfaction of knowing this work is for MY OWN house finally, no more apartments or other people's houses!
It may be small, but it's mine.
