Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement. (Golda Meir)

Today I love living in white
When I was young and the first time that I lived alone my house was full FULL of colors! I was completely against white walls and something like that. Nearly 12 years my living room was in orange-yellow-red. My kitchen was yellow, the bathroom was blue (like a swimmingpool), my bedroom was in blue too and the entry was pink. Since 3 or 4 years I´ve changed my colors...Now my kitchen is creamy-white, my entry too, my living room is creamy-white in combination with cappuchino brown, my bedroom is in a dark but very quite brown-purple and only my bathroom is a little bit more flashy - it has a strongly turquoise, but a "quite" tone too...I love my new colors and in the meantime I like also living in white...maybe I am grown-up now?
I love, love, love white spaces. Love them. Though when we moved into this house I got bold and made a Chinese lacquer-red kitchen (it took me four or five coats to get the shade and translucence just right). I also painted our bedroom a twilight blue at my husband's request (I let him pick the color of that room...which took a lot of effort on my part, since I like to be in control of all the colors. I'm VERY picky about my colors! Fortunately, the color is lovely and very calming....he chose well!)
"Picky" is a great word-that´s exactly what I am too about my colors!you can not imagine,how long I´ve thought about the colors in my house.All the people around me were so nerved,hihi.But it´s not like buy a pullover,if he would have the wrong color,than you don´t need to wear it.But the colors in which you live? That´s such a difficult desicion!But when the work is done and the result is perfect,that´s such a wonderful feeling!
