To paint or not to paint

My house needs to be painted. It’s all the same color inside. Boring.

Have you heard of that color?

This fireplace is in a small “hearth” room off our kitchen. The walls are a yucky yellow and the fireplace is brown. I don’t really like brown.

But I can’t decide if I should paint it white. The family room and dining rooms have white fireplaces. I’m a little worried the black slate will look too modern with white…

I have these stars- I bought them for our screened porch of our last house but never put them up.

Baby you're a star

They are so cool. I want to put them across the front. So I need to decide if I want to paint…..

Moving on…..these pics have always been out. Eva STILL can’t figure out who the boys are

The rocks- I found those at Topsail Island last year after a storm. I have never seen them since. Love them.

And this is for Hannah, who is worried about spiders getting into her house.

And thats the end of my random post today

    Great! More spiders! Maybe I should get one of those and set it outside my door at night…maybe that would keep my bed-hog daughter out of my bed for a night or two. She used to be terrified of lady bugs, so we put a picture of a lady bug as a screen saver on Greg’s phone to keep her out of it 🙂 It worked for like a week.

    Paint it. You can always strip it later 🙂

    Okay, if I could stop laughing I would say “Paint it white”, thats just me, I am on a white kick…everything is white and beige, yes boring:) Back to laughing, I did not even have to click on Hannah’s name….all I could do is smile. Lucky you did not have a bee in that pic too. (sorry Hannah:) Have a great day, you too Hannah…

    Paint it black – we did – you won’t be sorry. It rocks my living-room world!

    I vote for white!!! 🙂

    We also lived in Sneads Ferry for a year while my husband was stationed at Camp LeJeune. Our house was about 2 minutes from the bridge to North Topsail!

    Great minds think alike Shana! That was my first thought. Live on the edge a little Elisa and let the black surround be your lead. Your stars should pop nicely against a black base very much like the pic you posted of the star. As much as I love white a little bit of black does wonders for a place.
