Couldnt be any more excited when Kristin (our landlord) called us yesterday to say: "We were going to paint the walls a solid beige or neutral color; but if youre serious about painting other colors then come on over, the place is yours to do what you like!"
So tonight is the night... I came across these amazing colors through Kates blog from SF http://www.undeniablestyle.com/... The colors captivated me! She has an awesome sense of style and sensibility =]
I've never been as bold as to think turquoise or purple would look good on any wall... but our carpets are a light ; almost white color and so any bright colors would liven up the entrance hall. And im kind of digging the whole Moroccan/Indian/Middle Eastern vibes. When you walk up the stairs to our flat, all you see is this flat white wall with not much personality.. yes, a great colorful paintjob would do the trick; a splash of any of the above colors would really make a "welcome!" statement.. And the wall decor can then be something as simple as a nice mirror. I specifically love this idea:

Baby wants an olive green bedroom this time around.. from Red to green; Def a big change lol... We will see what shade of green we decide on... And the living room; I actually think we wont need to paint it.. with the colorful shades of orange; blue and red we already have as couch pillows; decor; candles; etc... maybe just a wonderful canvas painting done by her would add all the personality our small living room needs. Color may actually make our space even smaller; so lets see what happens... =] Sooo excited! Pics of the finished project coming soon!!!
