Hooray for Paint!!

I like it when Oprah tells us that our homes should rise up to meet us. I agree with her. Our home should be an inspiring place for us to live- a beautiful place to think, eat, sleep, love. I want a beautiful place to call home, don't you? Ever since I first saw Nate Berkus remodel his tiny Manhattan apartment in 2005 with all-white rooms and high gloss blue-black doors I knew that's what I wanted for our home. It was so clean and bright.

It is now 2010 and we're finally at a point where we can afford to paint our entire house. (I've been waiting for this moment!) I was inspired by Nate's apartment, and I've edited the idea to fit our home.

Here are our chosen colors:

• White
• High Gloss White
• Deep Ocean
• High Gloss Polo Blue
  
• Surf Blue
• Harbor Fog
  
• Blue Orchid
  
• Slate
  
• Graphite
• Stone
• Black
• Million Dollar Red

I can't wait to see what I've imagined turn into reality. I hope it works!
