As much as I adore homes with rooms that are uniquely painted (I have a friend whose house has more rooms that ARE painted in bold striped and plaid patterns than not) I simply can't do it in my own house. I love looking at photos of rooms painted yellow, blue, red...etc. But I think because I have such decorating ADD, I have to stick with neutrals in my own home as far as wall color goes. I like to do that so I can switch out accessories in different colors when I feel like a change, rather than re-doing a whole entire room. My favorite look lately has been rooms that feature lots of whites and creams with warm wood tones for flooring and furniture. (The most recent issue of Country Living is FULL of amazing images to illustrate my point in case you were wondering.) Here are some other examples I found...
I would love to have any one of these rooms!

On another note, I did mention before that we painted our Master Bedroom a dark color and even though NOTHING else is done in there AND it is an extremely hard room to photograph (lots of weird walls and angles) I just wanted to share with you a peek at the color I chose. It is Benjamin Moore paint and the color is Alexandria Beige.
Hopefully we will get around to fixing up the bathroom one day, but for now at least we have paint on the walls!
