More Color: The guest bedroom


So, this room needs a makeover! Whoever picked out the mauve was just craaazzzzyyyyy! Look at such nonsense-

After much deliberation, I have (for now and until I actually see it in the room), picked out a green color called "Spanish Olive". Now you know when I'm painting these photographs, I'm not really painting the color I've picked out. It's just a best guess. But I tell ya, a beautiful warm avocado (or spanish olive, natch) will be gorgeous!

Filling this in was a bit of a challenge. When I painted over that wallpaper trim it looked odd. I do think it needs some sort of "molding" or painted trim. And since that far left side was in shadow, I tried that out as trim. At first I forgot about the reflection in the mirror, but that's filled in too. I know it looks weird, but I really think it will be awesome!

I don't even mind the wood trim with the green. Maybe if down the road we paint the wood, I will add molding for where the wall meets the ceiling. But for now, I know I will need some sort of trim there.
