Asparagus

I decided to repaint the living room on a whim yesterday. So much like everything that I do I got dressed, packed up the boys, and went to spend! We have known that we were going to paint, and I knew I didn't really like the dark brown color we had up before, but I DID NOT know what color I wanted until yesterday. Asparagus.



We ate first, of course...
Then headed off to Lowes...
You would think we were at Disney World. What is it about a lawnmower that makes a kid wanna get on? Is it a "boy only" thing? Can't be because I still sit on everything and touch whatever is on display.
Anyway, the new paint is such a bright refreshing change. The chocolate brown was nice, but so dreary. I wanted something fresh and bright!

So this is how it turned out. Love the green! Looks more like guacamole to me than asparagus. I think this will be our color palette with the burgundy and blue. This...
(no that is not an All Because Two People Fell in Love Sign-ha)
or Yertle the Turtle! I love that blue and green bright combo and this color made me think of that book right away!

Oh my goodness, my bedroom is black and white and I was going to do a limeish green for a wall color I love your wall color. Would you mind telling me the color and the brand. I hope you don't mind if I copy you.

It looks fantastic.
