bye-bye orange.

today we primed the living room. i can't WAIT to get a new lighter color on the wall. the previous orangey-yellowey-gold mixture was okay but we really want something that accents the trim a little more.

we primed it so that we could see all the IMPERFECTIONS that come with having 100 year old plaster walls. and there are LOTS so that will be our project for the next week. thoughts on the color?!! i'm leaning towards staying in the same color palette as our kitchen.

Faux finishes are great for hiding imperfections; and every house has them...

I went flat paint and neutral colors in mine and boy does it show! I so prefer the colorwash...

We painted our dining room Martha Stewart wild artichoke green and it looks really nice with our wood trim.
