The votes were tallied & you all agreed - paint this baby and paint her fast!
So I was forced to appease the masses.
I went with a color called Rossland A38-4 from Ace. It is actually one shade lighter than my wall colors in my living room - Forgotten Secret A38-5.
I absolutely love my living room paint - love it so much I'd kiss it that's right! It looks fabulous with green so that's what I went with.
After the paint dried - I scuffed this baby up to make her look aged. I love the color & the new pop of turquoise inspired me to redo the entire bedroom.
I decided to make some more desk room & strung up my extra clocks on a hook & twine - love it!
I then took some old rulers & these are a great place to hold spare pictures - or display our sweet Ethel Edith business cards!
I also took some fabulous frames - hit them with some spray paint & they got a fabulous new look. Now my desk displays some of my favorite colors & favorite collections!
Stay tuned to see more of the bedroom redo tomorrow!
