So, being bored and with the promise of two more years in our apartment (Steve got accepted to BYU and he took it, yeah OREM! and cheap rent) I finally saw the opportunity to mix it up a bit in the living room and I am loving it.
Remember these cute stripes?
Well they are gone in favor of a light blueish grey-sensual silver, and one striking black wall! I love love love the black and kind of wished we had done another one too.
With the grey that reflects light so well, the black is not oppressive or overwhelming at all in fact its beautiful. Plus its Steve's favorite color and he was very easy to convince. (Sometimes I think he must think I am a total freak when I bring home "interesting" items from DI and try to fit them into the house, thanks for trusting me!)
Note: I made that screen because I couldn't stand those short boxy curtains. I think it turned out pretty well and lets so much more light in. Plus it adds a lot of fun pattern. I got the wood at Lowe's, the black paint is the same from the wall and the fabric is a curtain set from IKEA I repurposed into the fabric panels.
