Mary/Molly's Room ~ Take II

Tuesday, April 26, 2011


Originally, I (Mary) was given the choice of what color to paint the room upstairs that was going to be officially the room of Molly & I when we were home visiting.  Since Master Bedroom was blue, and the Victorian Bedroom had a complex tri-color scheme.  I thought going with a more calming color would be nice for this room.  I picked Behr Rejuvenate with a Cottage White trim (thought it's hard to tell in this picture, it's sort of a light sage green).

However...

I was somewhat bored with the color.  Though it was nice, it seemed to be lacking that real "WOW" factors that all the other rooms seemed to have. So to jazz it up a little more, I discussed adding a possible accent wall color with Molly.  So with her input, we chose Behr Egyptian Nile.


Again, apologize for the awful cellphone picture.  But I painted these two walls with the new darker green, leaving the portion above the molding the Rejuvenate green.  The opposing walls are also still just Rejuvenate.  The room has transformed and Molly and I couldn't be happier.  Molly's large dark wood canopy bed frame will look beautiful against this dark green.  We're very pleased. :)
