I've created a monster....

In preparation for my husband's 30th birthday (and possible house guests) I decided that we needed to switch his office with the guestroom. (It makes so much more sense this way and I'm not sure why we set it up like we did in the first place.)  And, because switching entire rooms is not enough, I also figured now would be the perfect time to repaint! 

What a mess I created....In order to switch the rooms we first had to move everything into the dining room. Ahhh!  It is truly amazing how much stuff two people can accumulate.

Anyway.   Back to the fun part.  We tackled the guestroom to office switch first.  The walls received a coat of Sherwin Williams Silver Strand (SW7057):

 

(It looks much more blue on the walls than it does here.) 

Here was the space before:

 

And here is the Silver Strand on the walls:

And the guestroom we painted in Wheat Grass:

Which looks a lot greener on the walls.

The room before:

And after:

Both rooms are turning out great!  I'll take pictures tonight to post after I set them up.

Now we just need to deal with the mess in the dining room....sigh.

Dreaming about summer...

Connecticut is cold...really cold.  Apparently it is going to feel like -5 tonight.  Awesome!  This weather has me dreaming of summer and nothing say summer like Lilly Pulitzer!

and this isn't really classic Lilly but it is perfect!

Lilly is coming out with a line of furnishings soon....oh joy!

And I absolutely love the fabrics from Sis Boom right here in CT.

Sis Boom

The patterns and colors just so beautiful and refreshing.  I just imagine lounging in the sun with a delicious margarita.

Perfect!

So It Begins...

I've decided that I need an outlet for all my random thoughts so here it is. Who knows if anyone will read this, but if you are out there…enjoy!
