I finally finished painting the livingroom and the entryway this past week. After a tragic experiment with a burnt orange, I settled on this interesting yellow color called 'Ripe Oats' instead---it matches exactly the color of the walls of the old town in the sunshine from an Antibes postcard (that I can't seem to find at the moment--I'm sure lots of you have a copy of it though!). I also finished painting the floor a few weeks ago, it looks much better now even though it's just a temporary solution, at least it's not carpet.
Now I just have to hang some more artwork and do something with my disaster of a kitchen.
