the color is done


We have color on the walls. I repeat, we have color on the walls. After a little deliberation and compromise (on my part), we chose a color for our bedroom. It is a light, light, light yellow green. The correct name is Feldspar, from Behr. I really do like it a lot. I wanted to go a little darker, but now I'm glad Robert put his foot down, and we picked this color. I have been trying to organize the room now. One of the biggest things I did is move a lot of my scrapbook and stamp stuff out and into other areas. The room is so pretty, I don't want to junk it up again with all my supplies. I cleaned out a closet in our hallway and made room for a lot of scrapbook supplies. I'm still reworking some things, but what an improvement. Here is the "after" picture. I used the flash here which I don't normally use, but it was too dark otherwise. This link is the "before" picture from an old post, scroll down to the last picture. link

The quilt(s) are still a work in progress, but I ordered some of Heather Bailey's Freshcut fabrics, and they match our bedroom perfectly. Robert liked them too, so now I've got to decide what I want to do with them. :) Decisions, decisions.
I will try to get some photos of those soon, at least of the fabrics I am using for the boy's quilts.
Have a great weekend.

Looks fabulous! What a sweet, fresh color. :)

HB's Freshcuts are definitely some of the most beautiful quilting fabrics I've ever seen! I have been trying to get my mom interested in her fabrics for a while now, but I think they might be just a tad too... funky (?) for her. She prefers 'antique' over 'retro'. LOL ;)
