A weekend away with Family to play!

Photo from dogpile.com
My Husband and I will be traveling up to the North Carolina Mountains this weekend for a family event.  It will be lovely to catch up and celebrate with loved ones, especially with the brilliant background of the foliage this time of year.  There is nothing like the Blueridge Mountains in Autumn!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.  Happy Blogging!

New Glamour Girl Pallet

This past Summer I worked on another Behr Paint paint project with my wonderful Mentor and friend, Linda Stansbury.  One of the rooms we were assigned to create was the "Glamour Girl" teen room.  From the beginning I was intrigued by the color pallet for this space... I was actually a bit nervous about it because personally I would not pair salmon and red together.  

Color Pallet
But I should of know the Color Experts at Behr knew what they were doing because it worked!  It ended up being one of my favorite rooms we created for this project.
