When I was younger I would go to the the hardware store with my dad every weekend. While he was gathering supplies I could be found in the paint isle pulling the paint chips whose color I liked and would put them in my pocket. Too bad my mom threw them away I could have used them for a project! It’s brilliant because you can use crazy colors that might otherwise not work!

I adore the last picture of the dining room. That is my dream chandelier, and table, and chairs:-).

The pennants are fabulous. And I too love the table–the whole room in fact!

Hah! I just read the comments on the other paint chip-decor post. Scott is my new hero. I feel like robbing a Pantone chip factory just to one-up him.

Also: painted wood & raw wood can play happily together, and both have their place (sometimes the same place!). Is there any reason why we have to pick between the two? As a lover of wood in general, I’m baffled by the continual resistance to paint ing it. Should we stop painting the exteriors of all wood houses, too?

p.s. Avril, I think that’s just chrome (not mirrors).
