Changing my Paint Mind

{Bloggin' My Crazy... It's a risk I'm willin' to take}

Me: (to Cason) "Babe... I think I want to re-paint the kitchen nook"

Cason:  "WHAT!?!?  What is wrong with the color that we already have???"

Me:  "Nothing... I mean... It's great, but I've had it for like... a WHOLE year!"

Cason: (raising his eyebrows and cocking his head to the side)... basically giving me this look that screams,
"AND????"
LOL.

ME:  "Come on!  The paint is 40% off!  And YOU don' t have to paint ANYTHING.... promise!!!"

Cason:................(((silence)))..................under his breath... "ya, right".
"What color DO you want, now?"
...


ME: (cringe)... "Blue"

Cason: "OH!  Weird... I thought we had a blue wall all along!?"

haha

ME:   "No... Just... a lighter, gray-blue.... to brighten up the space even MORE!"

Cason: "Ugh... whatever.  I'm not in on this.  You can tell all of our bloggy friends that YOU'RE the one who's certifiable... not me." 

HAHAHAHA!!!

Yes... I'm here to say... I'm "certifiably crazy" because I'm RE-painting our kitchen wall,
just a different "SHADE" of blue. hee hee.

It's gonna be GREAT!
Just you WAIT! :)

  2. Love your blog, just came across one of your images in a google search and here I am - what a great find! lol My LR is in blue right now and I'm prepping it for some new paint - was also thinking of going with a light blue/gray, thanks for showing me how great it will look! :) Off to peruse more of your lovely site now!

  3. I think it'll look great no matter what you do (everything else seems to turn out phenominally so why not this little kitchen nook?).

    But...
    I will admit...
    I like the original blue.
    But I TRUST your judgment.

    (not to mention it'll drive you nuts if you DON'T do it. Like hair, once you have the idea in your head to change it...you must!)

  9. I had the same conversation with my husband when I wanted to paint the living room an off white.

    "You hate white walls"
    "It's not just white, it's Natural Choice"
    "So, white"
    "Whitish."

    ;) Men.

  12. I'm voting with Cason on this one--you're crazy. Even though I've never seen the blue in real life--I love it from the pictures I've seen on your blog. But you do have really good taste so I bet the new color is going to look even better. :)

  15. Remind your hubby that there are worse things you could decide to do, like move a wall or need to re-plumb a bathroom :)

  16. so this is what the sherman was for! LOVE IT :) you crack me up. As long as your hubby has pronounced you certifiable feel free to join me - the crazy glue gun, spray painting housewife - in the looney bin. We have arts and crafts every mon, wed, and fri. I bring the spray paint... and the glue sticks... hahaha!
