beige



Beige is atmosphere. It's bisque, it's ivory, it's cream, it's stone, it's toast, it's cappuccino. It's, well, it's magic. ~Albert Hadley



(That beautiful quote being said, my living room is in the process of being painted. Everything is a mess and I'm almost sorry I started this project. Arghhh!)

    I think your room is beautiful! But I know the feeling so well. These floors just about did me in ! I want to thank you for the sweet note on my decorating style. I just do what I like and try to stay away from trends. French Country is one of my favorite styles and I am glad that you could see that . I can't wait to see what all you do. Don't let me miss it. p.s. the mural is painted on ... a gift from my husband.

    Are you getting rid of your beige? I love that colour! I usually use off-whites, but I am thinking of doing a nice warm beige in my guest room, with white accents, just like your living room. David wants blue!

    Thanks for your sweet comments on my chandelier post. I am striving to become less of a spender and when I do spend, I want it to be on something beautiful that I (hope) will still love in several years. Classic never goes out of style!

    Now...what colour are you doing????

    Garden & Be Well, XO Tara

    Hi Janet,
    Your living room is so beautiful. And your salon wall above the couch is what inspired me to do the one in our den! I am familiar with 'projects' and hope that soon, yours will be behind you so that you may sit back and enjoy! xoxoTrina
