paint chip-itis




Everyone has a drawer somewhere that is filled with these right? I'm wondering if the sheer number of them is a sign of an unwell mind. We are working on the finishing touches of our garage which is soon to be MY CRAFT ROOM...I mean our office. The electrical outlets were put in today. The drywall is finished. Now I have to pick a paint color. I want to do something fun, but then I also feel like I need to paint it something neutral in case I end up doing a lot of my photo work out there. Ugh! It's so hard to decide. Right now I'm kind of leaning towards a Laduree kind of color scheme. Cool jadite green with dark grey trim. Or maybe dove grey walls and fun apple trim. Pale pink door no matter what. Duh. 



I'm not sure if this is still a croquembouche when it's pink and green but it sure is pretty



Laduree Tokyo, don't you just want to put on a petticoat and soft pink shoes and twirl?


Sigh... I would like my cosmetics laid out in my powder room like this. I mean I know this is a sweet shop and not a bathroom. But I could make pretty in this room.


If I had only known this existed before we signed the lease on the new prius! 



I lifted this little collage off a blog called c+j.bond.ny. It's perfect and it pretty much summarizes my love of Paris
