Somewhere over the rainbow... of colors
Sunday, April 8, 2007

Yesterday, Joen and I made a trip to Lowe's to check out their paint color palettes. I know, I know, it's still too early, but can we help it if we're excited? After all, we've already seen the inside and outside of the house so we can now start envisioning the colors and decors and such. Although we both agreed that we shouldn't do everything we need to do at one time and that we should schedule it on a monthly or quarterly basis. Even Feng Shui practitioners advise against doing everything all at once because the elements might be too overwhelming. We both kind of know already that the kitchen will be certain dark shade of red and that the living room will be some shade of avocado green. The family room in the basement can be painted later but it just might be a cool gray blue. We don't know just yet. We went to Borders where Joen read about house flipping and where I browsed through decor magazines to get ideas for the living room and Dining Area.

Today, Joen and I went to Home Depot to inquire about their paint classes but they didn't have any for the month of April. Hoh well, I guess next month then? We went over to their BEHR section and did this virtual color printing via touch screen monitor. Pretty smart and enjoyable. We then went to B&N where I continued to read more on my Feng Shui and Joen got immersed into a whole new world of painting and decorating. He says he wants to take charge of landscaping. YIPPEEE!!!
