I'm back........and tired! For the last 4 days, we have been cleaning out sheds and outbuildings before the new owner does a walk through right before the closing, which was yesterday. I swear men keep ahold of more useless stuff, why is that? But everything looked "impressive" and the closing went well, we no longer own this place! And our new house should be ready by the first, so just 2 more weeks to finish up the packing. We've waited a year for this house, so I think a couple more weeks is do-able!
I've got so many ideas running around my head that I had to start a folder for them all. I'm trying to convince the hubby into blue and chocolate brown for our bedroom, he made a face and looked puzzled, even after showing him the combo in magazines and catalogs? So, I need your help here, what do you think of a blue and chocolate brown bedroom? I figured if enough of you left positive comments, I can show him that I'm not alone in this line of thinking. Maybe one wall can be painted in the chocolate brown, the wall that the bed sits on and the rest can be painted blue ( or vise aversa) with both colors being thrown about in pillows, curtains and accessories? I love both colors and really would love our bedroom done in these colors, so let me know what you think, and as always, I appreciate your input! Who wouldn't want to fall asleep or wake up in a chocolate colored bedroom?
Hi Sue, so glad that everything went well!
ReplyDeleteI don't have that color combination in my home, but I do think that it is very pretty. I love the pic you posted of the bedroom--it looks so pretty and relaxing!

Well, I guess it's true great minds really do think alike. Of course, you already know that I like the brown and chocolate b/c thats what I want to do our room in when we move.
ReplyDeleteYeah-I'm with you!
Congratulations on your house closing! I am not personally a big fan of chocolate brown as I tend to like the more pastel colors, but the photo you posted of the bed linens looks very nice. My kitchen is done in a medium blue and almond/tan color scheme and looks very nice. Sort of the same.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I'm so excited for you.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I love blue and chocolate brown. I would do it in a minute.
Congratulations on selling the house!
ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of the chocolate and blue and think that picture is perfect with the blue wall behind it. I think your hubby would like it if he could view the pieces in person. Try to get him to the store and put the pieces side by side to show him. Maybe that will change his mind. It's masculine an feminine at the same time. xxoo
DOnt you already haved blue in your bedroom? Get your rest, your going to need it with moving and all. Take care and Love you...
ReplyDeleteOh Sue you guys have waited so long for this. I'm so happy for you. The blue and chocolate combo is gorgeous! If you have time drop by and join in my giveaway. If I draw you're name perhaps I can mail the package to your new address!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteOoooh, that's pretty, Sue. Would you paint your bedroom walls blue, or a nuetral color?
ReplyDeleteThat does look nice. Are you buying the house you looked at last year? the one you really wanted? I hope so. How neat for you.
ReplyDeleteIf you are going to have the choc/blue bedroom I guess i would paint the wall a very soft blue, very pale so the other blue would pop a little but not too much. does that make any sense? I am happy for you. MB
Pretty blog.... just found you blogging around... :)

I really like that color combo.
ReplyDeleteHope you can talk him into it.
Sue,
ReplyDeleteI can really feel for you about the "moving bit" - we just did that a year ago. Hang in there, it will be worth it! At least you've got the old house sold. That's a BIG step!
I also like those colors together, very striking!
Oh Friend Sue,
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I'm no help! I like the brown, but not the blue with it.
Sorry!
God bless!
Laura
