pinterest is going to be the death of me, or more likely, the death of my bank account. so i came across this mudroom and loved the coral/orangey wall in the background, such a funky color splash....
...which of course got me thinking about this one mudroom wall i have. it's the only plaster wall among the wood paneling in the room (which I kind of want to paint white now instead of keeping the natural wood color). you can see if from the back yard only pretty much, but i still want it to make a statement...
...and then i saw this color combo on pinterest as well of urchin tones and thought it was the prettiest thing i'd seen. and now i want to paint that one dang wall one of these colors, likely the teal color...
...and instead of using the painting i have in there now, i've been dying to hang these photos of the dogs in their white frames (since the mudroom is pretty much dedicated to all things dog related). i like to take a special portrait of each dog to remember them by. the westie was my first love, mackenzie...then there's penny & maple who were photographed by li of fat orange cat a few years back...and then there's the one of hank from westport last summer...
...and since there's a bench seat in there i thought i could solicit dear old mom (aka: master seamstress extraordinaire) to sew me a custom cushion out of a funky fabric (TBD)...
don't you think that would look so wonderful? damn, now i feel like i have to paint the paneling white...see how my spending spirals out of control? i'll let you know how it turns out.
EXCELLENT plan. love your ideas. can't wait to see it finished!
