The next step...

I thought I would be packing and moving to the new 'old' house quickly but after having been there with Sarah on Sunday it looks like painting will be the next step. Looking to go with the colors I was going to use in this house. 

Sarah thinks I need to add color to the room I will use as my craft room, something in pink or purple. I am leaning towards a shade of lavender. She also thinks I should go with a pale yellow in my kitchen, that I am still trying to wrap my brain around. I like the blue in the master bedroom but she says it's a little dull and thought maybe adding some kind of sponged color over the existing will add a little 'pop' to the room. Cash's (guest) room is going to be a sage color as is the living room and the hall will be a shade of light brown. I need to go to the paint store some time this week. But I know I can't go without my decorator along. :) 

I decided on mini blinds in the bedrooms, my craft room and the eating area in the kitchen. So my next trip to the house I will need to remember a tape measure. I will be putting drapes in the living and dining room plus the sliding glass door in my craft room. I am just going to put valances in the remaining windows which are over the kitchen sink, the utility and bathroom. 

I am getting very excited about the house just not the packing and moving part. I have already had lots of offers to paint and to move. I am very blessed with great friends and family.
