MIA because I've been painting!

For six months I've been tossing around the idea of painting our sunroom.   We live in this room, and I've grown tired of the butterscotch walls (since 1998!) so I've spent the last week painting.  The room has 14 windows...lots of trim.




The trim and ceiling will remain white, but the wall color is a blend that I created with two colors I had on hand.   It turned out to be a soft taupe, a big change from the gold.  I painted one wall and lived with it for a day. In the morning light it looked more grey, and in the evening it was a warm taupe.  The calmness of it grew on me, so over the next three days I painted the whole room.

There will also be a furniture update.  We're getting rid of a queen size sleeper sofa and a recliner, and replacing them with two new chairs. I'm bringing in a black leather chair from the living room. Our TV is coming off the 26 yr old black TV cabinet and will sit on the coffee table already in the room.  The TV will be on a riser so the cable box can fit underneath it.
