Home Keeping: The Final Color



 So here we were with the first color Saturday night.  The light is the overhead fan light.  Very bright!  Too much for a soothing, but warm toned bedroom.

 Here is the final color this morning in natural light.  The room isn't fully put back together and we are giving the walls a few days to cure before we hang pictures back up!  This holder on my desk needs to be sorted out in the worst way!

 I like the color with the white trim as contrast.

 I turned the bedside lamps on, but you can see the natural light coming in the front windows and the side window, early this morning.  This was after I remade the bed and moved it and the dresser, and side table back in place from the middle of the room.

 The light in the room makes the color change a bit.  This is again the wall behind my desk.  It looks a lot deeper than the first photo of the desk area.

The light from the lamp makes the color deeper too.

We ended up having a gallon of the right color and a gallon of the living room color which were very close in color, so we mixed them together.  It is not the same color as my old bedroom, but I am satisfied with it, and like the warmth it brings, while being a soft color.

I'll show more photos after it is put back together with pictures, shelves, and curtains.

It's very pretty Deanna!

It looks lovely, Deanna! So warm and comforting, soft and restful. That was a great idea to combine the two colors. Just be sure to paint something portable (scrap of wood or a paint stirrer?) in that color so that you can have it color-matched if you ever want more.

Hooray for a completed project! :)

It's warm and welcoming - just what you want after a long day. Isn't it amazing how much difference the light makes? Enjoy your "new" room.
