I’m guilty of usually taking the safe route with color choices in my home. Brown, cream, white, light blue, etc. are great colors to build a room around, but I’m trying to add more color like in this mirror I painted for my entryway. Sometimes you really need something special to catch your eye and brighten things up. I don’t recommend painting your living room walls neon green, but how about something on a smaller scale? A bold colored piece of furniture can make a huge difference in an otherwise neutral space. Remember, paint is a powerful thing!

Oh my goodness! I found you through Pinterest & I love your site. I’m a fellow DIY-er that has just started redoing furniture, and I am totally addicted. If you have a minute, I would love it if you stopped by my little blog (www.justdoityall.com).
P.S. Can we be friends? We totally have the same taste! 🙂
