one down...

one decision that is -

paint colours!!

clearly, it only takes one trip to Restoration Hardware

to fall for their colours!

it's almost impossible to leave the store without paint samples,

case in point - picked up a paint deck:

{husband drew on them with pen - for shame!!! those are sacred to a designer!}

then husband picked up some samples, 

and I painted the swatches

{Gray's room first!}

the ones that made the cut?

* 1 - buttermilk     2 - ash     3 - graphite *

Gray picked number two for his room

{no really, he did!!},

number 1 is going in the hallway because it is dark

and needs some light,

and number three is going on all the doors!!

yep, grey doors!

I'm very excited to see how those turn out! 

I would paint the whole house in that colour -

but I love light and airy spaces too,

so I'm containing myself and limiting it to the doors

{for now...hehehe...shhh don't tell husband}.
