Rest.
Tags:Please forgive the "not-so-professional" stitching job on this one. After doing each room in the house, I am tired.
This is where we sleep. It was Chris' vision for these wall colors and I chose the deep purple for the bedding. I was skeptical of the orange at first, but have grown to love the entire feel of the room and will miss it when we move. Maybe we will use this same scheme in the next house.
I spent the last four hours taking photos of the interior of the house for a potential buyer in another state. This could be good. And I will have lots of scrapbook material of a CLEAN house.

Lovely! I am inspired by those Pier One commercials right now, that are chocolate brown with an array of rich colors paired with it in a row. Have you seen it? I'm thinking about doing that in my living room.

Really seems to suit you! Exactly what I would have expected. Someone will be very lucky to buy your home, you've put so much love and care into everything. Post some other pics if you can, I'd love to see more. Good luck with the sale...can't say I'd complain if you moved out this way, to Portland ;-)

Ooohhh, I know how you feel. Before we sold our house I took photos of every room, every little nook. Of course when they were developed I fell in love with my little house all over again and didn't want to sell LOL
Your bedroom colours look fab!

I realy like the angles of the room & the natural light. Whoever buys your home will have a fun time enjoying your creative spirit. I bet they don't change much.

Mike and I painted the dining room of our old house orange. Took us weeks to get used to, but now that we've moved, we miss it. Good news is the colors we chose throughout the old house were liked by potential buyers. Hope this is the case for you. Good luck with the house-sale.

What a great picture. It reminds me of something I would see in Real Simple - one of my favorite magazines. Also quite inspiring. I've been in my home for 4 years, and haven't really done too much in the way of decorating. Maybe tonight I'll work some in the bedroom. :-)

I painted a wall in my formal living room that same color orange and I love it! I picked it because it worked the best with the orangy brick on the fireplace. I admitt it was a little scary painting it.
Funny thing is that I put plum colored pillows and a plum throw in that room too! Its an odd combination but it works!

Color is so fun to work with! I painted my kitchen cabinets barn red, and everyone looked at me like I was crazy when I told them what I was planning to do, but the result was stunning (just like your room's color scheme is stunning). I'm going to miss my kitchen when I move, but at least I know that the person who is buying my house is in love with the color. Good luck with the sale of your house.
