Oh How Pinteresting!

Earlier this morning I created a new pinterest board

titled


Color Favorites.

You would not find me on any kind of trending blog list right now

because I CRAVE color.


Why?

I think because it looks like jewelry to me.

And,

truth be told,

who knows how cravings start?

The greens above remind me of a malachite necklace and earrings I have.

I not only love the colors in this bedroom,

I also love anything with monograms.

Do you think it’s tied to

why ladies of an age begin wearing Red Hats?

To that I say,

You Go Girl!

I have used white in my home

all of my home’s life,

hence the name

White Spray Paint,

but this is coming from some place else.

It is going to be fun to find out why and how!

I love color. Can't help it. I love white, too, but I couldn't live without color, it makes me happy.

I keep forgetting about Pinterest! This is a great idea for a board. I love your pins.

Cravings are a strange thing, aren't they? A while back I once had a craving to listen to music from the 1920s. I could not stop thinking about it until I finally found a CD at Borders Books. Sometimes I crave Patsy Cline. And I am an alternative rock person!

I am a color girl too! I always admire those gorgeous creamy white rooms...then I think...I have a black cat!! Would NOT work! lol

I painted my front bathroom a dark brown last night....almost freaked out when I rolled on that first stroke!!! But....I love it!

You are not alone!

Hi Laura, I'm glad you came to comment and follow! I think you like green like I do...I looked around on your blog. I love the green bowls on your potting bench in the garden shed! I've got a couple of them myself. I've added a lot of aqua with my green over the last 2 or 3 years.
Do you live in McAllen? I'm originally from Corpus Christi. I lived in Longview for about 20 years before moving to Greenville.
Blessings, Angela

HI Laura!
I am with you.... I have lots of color in my home.
Though I appreciate and love the white trendy homes, there is no chance that I could ever hope to have one with two dogs, two cats, two kids and a not-too-tidy hubbie!!!
Love these pics. Isn't Pinterest great?
Your newest follower,
Alison

I am the same way about craving color. I like a white background though. So I can change up the color at my whim :)
