I hated my drab bedroom. It had no character. I love the prim/country look and after my heart surgery in Feb. 2007, my lovely and thoughful daughters bought me this beautiful quilt for our bed. But after I put it on the bed, the walls looked Blah.
The room needed a new overhaul.
A few weeks after my recuperation, I painted our bedroom. It was a beige color and I went mustard. The room is small and while the mustard color is dark and you aren't supposed to use dark colors in small rooms, I did it anyway and I love it. I don't have 'prim' furniture, so my room doesn't look very prim, but I'm happy with it. At least until I can talk DH into buying new furniture.

Thank you, that was perfect!!Laurie
You did good! Love the shelf over the bed and the quilt. The lamp is really nice also! How did you paint your walls? Did you do a faux technique?
