I want to play more with colorful accessories and patterns now that I have the clean, crisp backdrop. <br /><br />Oh my, your lavender trim is tough. But really you've made it look totally stylish and cool. <br /><br />Tastes really do change. I'm with you, I still love vintage, but just very picky about the touches of vintage I include. With everything off the walls, I kind of just want to leave it that way. It's calm and uncluttered. That's kind of relaxing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13011116918693965894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5264100415266920029.post-7396743238328125382013-07-24T08:39:52.849-07:002013-07-24T08:39:52.849-07:00I actually wanted the paint in an eggshell finish ...I actually wanted the paint in an eggshell finish so that I could wipe kiddos hand prints off, but the paint store mixed it in flat and I didn't notice till I had most of the room painted. Ahhhhh, I guess this white may only last a year or so. Thank goodness for magic erasers. <br /><br />I think I'm really going to love the white though. The room is super crisp and clean and it definitely seems brighter!

You already have such good home bones and furniture/art, it looks wonderful! <br /><br />I've been dying to repaint our apartment, we're renters suffering for the weird choices of previous tenants: http://jadeandfern.com/2013/07/18/the-living-room/<br /><br />It's funny what you said about tastes changing, mine have REALLY changed in the past few years! I used to drool over vintage kitsch, and now I am much more drawn to a modern aesthetic with touches of vintage. This is bad news for my wallet. :)Marlene @ Jade and Fernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04952738156856494721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5264100415266920029.post-39045576590980506212013-07-19T17:02:58.133-07:002013-07-19T17:02:58.133-07:00I did all white in our living room and loved it, b...I did all white in our living room and loved it, but it wasn't a good fit with our kids being so young. Their hands and feet prints and all kinds of marks drove me crazy enough to repaint the room several months later. BUT, B.U.T. I can't wait till they are older, because you best believe I am going to go back to some white walls! I love white, always have. I think it's so crisp and clean, and bright. Even on a gray day a white room can look bright and airy. :) I think you did a great job. can't wait to see what accessories you incorporate!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04370776219957257511noreply@blogger.com
