It's quite interesting. Iwas never in interior design, but I learned not to go down the perfectionist path back when I was planning our wedding. Watching all the other brides obsess over whether the insert paper in the invitations was an exact match to the pew bows was... interesting. A certain path to madness.

Just breathe is what I keep telling myself, a man on horseback can't tell the difference! Family and laughter in what I expect to happen here not a photo shoot.

Yup, ...'Mustard, baby poop, harvest gold.' Yup, that's what I got in my living room after picking it long distance. Already painted, I am living with it, simply took down the curtains it was supposed to go with, the easy way out.

I covered it with sunflower yellow nd the other rooms in other, slightly more mellow shades of yellow. All hail sunny rooms with imperfections!

I always find quirks as touches of character, but my Mom is one of those whose sheets are never wrinkled, everything is matchy-matchy, and wood surfaces are like mirrors. Would drive me crazy!!!

I love looking at model homes and perfect rooms on Pinterest but I could never live in one .... not unless it came with a trap door where I could shove all my "stuff" out of sight everytime company came. :-)Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12283575512727062312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-76759167267011653322014-07-05T04:40:36.867-07:002014-07-05T04:40:36.867-07:00I have 4 gallons of paint sitting on my kitchen fl...I have 4 gallons of paint sitting on my kitchen floor now! Painting is such a quick and easy fix and makes such a big change. It takes me forever to decide on a color but I'm always so happy when it's done. And my yellow this time is a bright yellow--I want a happy kitchen! And those little imperfections--not even noticed!Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14835393634763024001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-10020980346379627502014-07-05T03:51:00.726-07:002014-07-05T03:51:00.726-07:00Terry, this made me smile and nod in agreement.

Your final sentences describing a home - that's the stuff and the place that quilts come from. Thanks for sharing!<br /><br />TeriAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
