Colorful Laundry Room?

I have Knotty Alder cabinets in my laundry room so the paint color has to look well with them.

Possible Resolutions and Goals

I NEVER keep my resolutions. I try, but it never works. This year I have a few things I would like to try and do.

Here are some of them:

Make a Vintage style 1920's dress. I think it will be a a huge accomplishment but I think I can do it. I would have to do all the stitching by hand.

I would like to finish painting my house! That include the whole upstairs walls, ceilings, doors, molding and garage doors, and front doors.

I would like to put up a glass security door so Squid can look out at the happenings of the neighborhood.

I would like to try and start on the basement.

I would like to rip up the carpet and put in Walnut flooring.

I would like to finish the quilt I am making my Gma. She loves my quilts and I really want to finish this one. I am hand stitching memories into the squares so it is taking a lot of time.

I would like life to settle down.


Do you have a list of things you would like to have done in 2011?

Rugs!

I love accent rugs. It is a burst of artwork for your floor. This rug is in my master bath.  I love it. I am actually getting the larger one for right here in front of the sink and put this smaller one in front of the shower. It's not super 'old lady' to have matching bath rugs in the same bath is it? I think it will turn out great! 

This rug is hanging out in my front entry way. I will be painting the door the same dark color that is in the rug. What do you think? I love the retro look. Steven and I absolutely love all things retro! 

I can't wait to pull colors out of these rugs to paint my walls. It will be so much fun! I can't wait!

Cleaning Day!

What am I doing? Cleaning! Yeah it really isn't all that fun. . . I have 16 & Pregnant on in the background and tater tots in the oven. I just want to start painting SO bad. Here are my painting plans: (click on the links for details)
1- Gray for the main house color and our bedroom and master bath.
2- Teal for the wall above the stairs and the wall around the back door.
3- The kitchen is already green.
4- The office will be blue and white....I think....?



What does your casa look like? Do you like paint or are you more of a simple chic kinda gal?
