Still working on the living room
I've changed the wall color and like it much better.
Before:
After:
Wow - the color looks crazy....
blue? green? Actually, it's a putty color
My camera and morning light did NOT pick up the color.
It's a deep neutral
SW Urban Putty.
Note that it looks like a different color on left and right of bookcase.
Crazy!
Anyway, I painted the inside backs of the bookcases
2 shades darker
SW Outerbanks.
It's a great taupe/tan/toast color.
We moved some bedroom chairs downstairs
because they were the right color.
The part of the room you don't see are the gold chairs,
which are waiting to be reupholstered....
as soon as I can make a decision.
Do you love or hate white slipcovers?
Do they stay in place on the furniture?
Are they hard to keep clean?
Also, do you like an attached back cushion (on a chair)
or a loose back that can be flipped.
I'm taking my own survey : )
Let me know what you think.
Blessings to you,
Linda

Linda I LOVE LOVE the rooms new look and love the white wing back chairs near you bay window!! Everything looks so pretty! Enjoy your weekend!
It looks GREAT.. I used SW Relaxed Khaki- same color as yours but about 2 shades darker. Folks always ask if its green:) the light makes it different all through the day and I LOVE that..
I've been thinking about painting my sofa and your blue one in that room looks fabulous- so I'll be adding that color to my choices list.
Have a great weekend.
Oh it is so beautiful. I love the color and the chairs are fabulous. Hugs, Marty
The color is great. I am having the same indecision on slipper covers (for a couch) so sorry no help there. The room really looks great!
I love the color and especially love the new chair placement. Aren't colors the most amazing thing? My new kitchen color changes hues almost hourly. I never know how it will look. :)
Hi Linda! Your new look is gorgeous! Love all of your chances and those chairs are so pretty and so perfect.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
The paint color is lovey and neutral. The chairs look great there. I don't like slip covers, but that's my opinion. Paint is such an inexpensive way to re-decorate. Thanks for sharing and also thank you for visiting and leaving me kind thoughts.
I love it! I am going to have to figure out a way to get mine painted. I knew that Urban Putty would be perfect!
I love the new wall color. The white chairs look great contrasting with your blue sofa. I don't have any experience with slipcovers. One of these days I'd like to make some.
Nice job, I prefer the yellow myself, really cheery, but you have to live with it :)
The room looks great. I love the color. I am having such a hard dime deciding on wall colors. I have several halls and rooms that meet, and cannot decide what to do. I am going to go look at your color at SW. I think it just may be what I am looking for. I like slipcovers, but you really have to find someone who does a good job making them.
I love the way you decorated your living room. the two white chairs by the window, and the couch look so nice. I am always moving my furniture -- too much !
Lovely blog !
I love those chairs by the bay window and, also, the color of your sofa - such a pretty blue. Your new paint color looks great!
LOOKS GREAT!
Your home looks beautiful. So many pretty touches!

The new paint in your living room looks great! I love your white
chairs, as well!
That room is just gorgeous Linda!
Although I like both paint colors, either way you know how to pull it all together so well!
Hugs,
Cindy
I'm racking my brain but just can't figure it out! Help! What is SW? Thanks!
I like the before and after pictures. Thanks for sharing those beautiful photos. :)
