ORC: Week 3

Three weeks into the One Room Challenge to update our three season room and I have few things to update. Because of the Easter holiday and a busy, busy work schedule, my progress has been minimal. 

I decided on paint colors for the walls and door but am still looking for the perfect shade of blue for the ceiling. For the walls and trim, I am going with Sherwin William's Westhighland White (SW7566) to make the space appear as large as possible. It is a narrow space and I know how cramped it can look when I add in furniture. 

For the door, I am moving away from red and trying out a very new to me color, Sherwin William's Naval (SW6244). I really wanted to go with a pop of color but the door opens into the rest of our home and the colors would not flow. 

I love the way this blue-navy blue door looks with the green ferns and black containers. I always decorate the three season room with ferns and plan to include pops of green. I think this color will bring out the blue tone colors in the entry way floor.

My plan of attack for this weekend and upcoming week include: 

- giving the walls a good scrubbing to prep for paint

- removing the popcorn ceiling

- selecting a ceiling color

- paint

- giving more thought to decor
