I would like to warm up the room and your wall color looks very good. I recently blogged about the new house last week with pictures showing the sellers furniture and colors.<br />http://happycottagequilter.blogspot.com<br /><br />JocelynJocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02714577523744715551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2106620262041679670.post-68762021685968254522010-06-24T07:22:09.849-05:002010-06-24T07:22:09.849-05:00What an awesome story!

I ...Thank you everyone for all your kind comments! I am enjoying the light color and think I will use something along these lines in my next house. For those that asked, the paint is from Valspar but I'm sorry to say I don't know the name. It's very close to Ben Moore's "Dove Wing" #960! <br />Thank you Cassity for featuring my bedroom reno! xoLisaLisa @ Shine Your Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07301618725406172528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2106620262041679670.post-21612668690668435382010-06-23T17:42:39.028-05:002010-06-23T17:42:39.028-05:00I love it either way.

I walk into dark bedrooms in houses on the market and am immediately turned off. I want to feel like the house is a fresh start. It's hard to feel fresh in a dark room. Does that make sense? Anyway, I love the change! I'm glad you like it too- I know how hard it is to live in a house you're trying to sell. Good luck!!!

And my husband has used those exact words about the square footage, and he has added that the paint holds the house up.<br /><br />My husband has come home from business trips to find rooms repainted all the time. Once I suprised him and put an Arbor on the porch, that one was hard to miss.
