Color Allowed

So, the big news around here right now is that Michael and I are in the process of buying our first home! This has been an amazing journey, that I will share more about in a later post. We never expected we would by a home, let alone in Houston, but God has a way of changing our plans. That He has made a way for us to be able to buy a home is a tremendous miracle and such a blessing. We are praying that our home will be a house of prayer, a place of fellowship, love and laughter, and a light to the community.

One thing I am personally very excited about is that I will be allowed to paint! I have always loved color...the deep blues of the sky and water, the variations in green when the sun is shining on the tree leaves, how the color red is bolder after a rainstorm...and now we are allowed to paint things any color we want!

Michael and I recently picked colors for our bedroom. We are going to use Sherwin Williams - Meander blue on the walls and SW- Lei flower on the shutters in our room. Yes, our room has shutters. The cafe style in the picture below. Too cute! Here are some pictures of the colors. I'll post before and after pictures when we finally get to paint (we haven't closed yet so it will still be awhile). But I welcome comments and suggestions!

Example of the wall color we chose. 'Meander Blue'

We have 2 windows with these cafe style shutters that we are going to paint 'Lei Flower' (above)
