Our Home- Powder Room Idea

I so love this color. 

However, my computer does not do it any justice. 

Its a really pretty color, and I am thinking of doing the down stairs powder room/half bath room in this color. With a stencil (motif have not decided on the stencil yet) and a glaze so that its not so “in your face”. 

One of my stencil idea is the Fleur-de-lis which means French Lily…

so very cool and popular these days on young, hip clothing lines.

Or maybe an Asian Motif

 I question whether this is an Asian Motif, but I am drawn to this design because of the old worldness it has. ( I know thats not a word.) 

The site has some neat pictures of wall stencil art.

I like this picture, but it’s probably a bit much to attempt since this will be my first time stenciling. 

HMMM...

But this would look great IF done correctly.

Thanks for stopping by

Old-World/ Tuscan Style Room

I am in love with this wall. I so would like to do this in my loft area or master bed room. 

Sooo, many choices, and possibilities.

 I can hardly wait!

~~Color assistant Danielle Hirsch creates texture on the walls with a rag technique. The result is typical of an Italian villa. The middle stripe is actually not the middle hue: Bromstad makes that color the most intense color ((GOLD)) because he wants to keep the eye at that level in the room.~~

Moroccan Look or Aged Faux Wall Paint

I love old world charm and it looks great if you can correctly incorporated into your home decor here Mrs Adventure is shows you step by step how she antiqued her wall to give her room a Moroccan feel.

I really do like this idea however done on a smaller scale.
