To stripe or not to stripe
Hey peeps.
Today is Monday and it appears I have survived.
It was touch & go there for a minute.
As I reported on mah other bloggity-blog, M&I sold our house last night. [HOLLA!]
So, naturally, all I can do today is gather ideas on how to make our new place look bitchin‘.
I’m starting with paint.
The living room-slash-kitchen are this super-bland greenish color.
It’s very neutral. It could do the trick. But it’s not going to.
The walls need a fresh coat of paint anyway, so why not just pick a new color?
I think I’m going to go with a gray-ish tone in the living room/kitchen area.
Since my current living room is “New York” themed, and I adore NYC, I’m keeping it.
And the gray tones would really accent all the stuff I have. Most of it is black and/or silver. So that works out.
I’m thinking on that wall that butts up to the kitchen
I’m going to do some wicked-awesome horizontal striping. [Which may also require some circus-style maneuvers since it runs into the stairwell.
My ninja skills are going to need a refresher.]
Kinda like this super-hero ^ did.
I’d use just a hair-darker gray than the base coat.
Perhaps a color such as this:
It’s just a thought. I may or may not actually possess the patience to pull something like this off.
I am a professional edger by now, though, so I feel pretty good about my odds of making this happen.
Anyway, I need some good ideas for decorating.
As I’ve explained before, I’m terrible at it.
If you happen across a site or blog that you think I should look at for some awesome-sauce design ideas, by all means tell me.
That’s all I’ve got for today, kids. I’ve got tutus to make.
Farewell, and
