moody with great contrast

          

The bottom right photo is the most true to color except the crazy blue floor. Don’t you just love the wood tones?! I could eat them up like the chocolaty goodness that they are. We aren’t near done, either – it turns out there is a lot more to do in the breezeway than I had anticipated in my list – but we’re getting there and I’m loving it (say it out loud, Mary)! In reality, the list should look something more like this:

1. Paint the floor
2. Sand the walls (whaaat?)
3. Vacuum the walls
4. Stain said walls
5. Sand, stain and install “baseboard”
6. Cut back the windows
7. Make the area around the windows acceptable
8. Install ceiling
9. Paint ceiling
10. Add trim to the doors
11. Install ceiling fan
12. Decorate

How did decorate become #12?! *sigh* I may never get there. Let the staining continue.

PS I am also in love with that photo of Jerry and Penny. We were discussing the room when she decided Jerry was okay – especially for lap sitting. See, she’s been kind of obsessed with me and could take or leave the Jer Bear (honestly, I don’t get it either). She still prefers me but at least he’s getting some good heart melting cuddle time, too. :)
