Not to long ago my mom decided this was the year she was going to have to face the ugly task of re-carpeting and re-painting my parents house. When she announced this to me, I asked if she considered painting it a color. For a few decades now, my parents homes have been all white. I love all white BUT I thought it might be time for a change.
I finally convinced her gray would be perfect. Still a neutral, but her window casings, crown molding and baseboards would all POP!
So, although she is eager (we all know) the construction zone can be overwhelming and aggravating. I thought a few beautiful inspirational images would help the first day go by a little easier.

I'm loving the gray. I'm thinking about putting it in my very out of date master bedroom with some white paneling to add a bit of sophistication. Thanks for the inspiration!
