My living room paint color!

For the last two weeks I've been posting a ton of photos with my Christmas decorations on Istagram and on my Holiday Pinterest board. Several people ask me about the paint color I used in my living room, so I dug out my paint can to share it with you all.  

Those who know me well know that I don't take the easy route very often! Well, picking out paint is no exception. After buying and being uninspired with several samples of blue paint colors I ended up mixing my own color. I just took bit of this and a bit of that and a few more bits of white paint until I got what I liked. After I was happy with the dried color swatch in the room I took a lid of dried paint in for the paint people at Lowes do their magic. 

Let's call it Breakfast at Tiffany's! The color code is 101-2.52, 102-24, 103-1Y39.52 The paint is a semi-gloss! 

Moody Monday: Peacock Blue

You know how it happens, you see a new color and you think, "Wow, I like that color." You see it here and there, then before you know it it's everywhere and coloring every pretty thing. For me this "new" color is peacock blue or teal. I like saying the word peacock, so I'm going to stick with that! I've long loved this color, heck my last vehicle was teal -- hated the van, loved the color!

Today I spray painted a vintage bathroom shelf for use in the new studio peacock. I didn't even realize that I had bought this very color till I started painting it. I knew I was bought a pretty blue, but once it was done I realized that I was already hooked on Peacock Blue!! I'll be sure to take the camera into the studio and get a photo for you all.
