On Hold


On Friday I was informed that the wallpaper we had ordered, around which the whole colour scheme was chosen, was no longer available. Now our little re-decorating project is on hold until we not only chose another paper, but are assured it will arrive. Fortunately I had not ordered the paint on Friday morning like I had wanted to. Had we not spent the day installing the Crown Mouldings, I would have had most of the wall painted already. So, today it is back to square one, paging through the books, trying to find something we both like. I want to go dramatic, busylizzy wants to stay calm and subtle. Note that these choices for both of us are opposite of our personalities. Can any of you psychologists out there explain this to me?

I can explain it for a fee :)

How about in exchange for me explaining you. :)

It's a sign. Now's your chance. Go dramatic. You only live once. Do it. I say hang a desert scenery/cactus mural and put in a sky light. Then we can come over and pretend we are in Palm Desert.

Funny you should say that, rellie, the choice we made today was from a sample book called 'Desert Sands'.

Oh goody, can't wait to see what daring shade of desert sand beige you picked. :)
