Painting...

I've wasted a lot of time the last few days staring at my bedroom walls trying to figure out what colors to paint them... I moved into my new place last week, and for the first time ever I am allowed to paint my bedroom whatever colors I want... and I'm finding the decision a bit overwhelming. I came to the conclusion that I am simply not a color-coordinated person! I'm trying to reconcile all the random (and extremely colorful) junk that I own and refuse to get rid of to all of the new (and extremely colorful) stuff that I recently bought that
makes me really happy... and I just have to come to terms with the fact that it's not going to match perfectly like certain other bedrooms I have seen recently. And I think I'm okay with that. : )


Exhibits A and B: (notice the swirly lamp on the left of the second tier)






ALSO, I made a discovery last year that is a wonderful innovations for transient college students (or anyone who is lazy or just fears permenance). Wall Pops, are little vinyl wall paper shapes you can stick on your wall, and they actually look just like paint. The best part is that they peel right off without ripping off paint, so you can adjust them or remove them really easily. Needless to say, this also adds to my helpless jumble of color options... Ah well, I can justify it by reminding myself that I'm still in college. : )










BTW, I'm definitely painting one wall yellow. I love yellow. : )
