Right ...Mine was called "Nantucket Mist." Right now the plan is to use tones of "rich" purple with it (throw pillows, décor, etc.) and a back sham - it looks nice. I also have a secondary blanket that is in shades of gray and yellow, so when I want to switch things up, I'll go with that theme. Yellow is definitely a "cheery" color. :) <br /><br />Agree with you - gray is very versatile and I wanted something that you could change your décor without having to re-paint the walls. What you chose sounds great! Whatever, the most important thing is that YOU are happy with it. :)Rissihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11378400717440822186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-787323131254633449.post-19852487693135651352013-04-12T07:53:10.407-07:002013-04-12T07:53:10.407-07:00Yay for the color gray!

That's too funny, Kara! I'm continua...Haha! That's too funny, Kara! I'm continually amazed at how exact that mug is to an actual lens, despite where the "Canon" logo would be, it actually says "Caniam." Don't know if that was a copyright thing or one of the "made in China" English translation things! :D <br /><br />You got that right, gral! Just the overwhelming varieties of the color WHITE is astounding...I've always sorta looked at white as while...gray as gray...black as black...but whoever is the master of the paint industry definitely has an imagination! :D<br /><br />Thank you for your compliment on my photography! That REALLY blessed me and encourages me to keep on going with my hobby! It's a lot of fun, although something I've come to realize about myself is that I just like photographing LIFE...and if in getting LIFE happening around me, if the picture isn't PERFECT and wall-worthy...that's okay with me. But...having it turn out awesome is also a huge perk. *wink wink*<br /><br />Actually, yes! I am feeling more settled in! I went home last night to gather more stuff and just spend a normal evening at home, like I would have if I'd been living there. Ended up sitting on the floor of "our" room with my sisters, talking and laughing while I did my nails...which is pretty typical! I came home to "The House" feeling a lot more confident in my new position in life and in the family...nothing TOO great has really changed. Of course, time will tell...but for now, I'm thinking I'm going to adjust very well!

I was looking at that pict...Firstly, love that mug! I was looking at that picture for the longest time trying to to decide whether it was actually a mug or if that spoon resting in it was just there for some reason. Then I had the bright idea to scroll further down and see if you mentioned it. Look! You totally did! :)<br /><br />Ah, the joys of picking paint colors. I'd like to know who decides how many shades of each color they should provide. Seems like they'd soon run out. Picking out wallpaper is just as hard, let me tell you! Took me ages to find the right one for my old bedroom at home. And now I can't even enjoy it, since I no longer live there. Crazyness. But still fun! :)<br /><br />The pics of the dance are magical themselves! Simply lovely. Have I mentioned that I think you're a great photographer? Because you are. :) And it looks like y'all had a wonderful evening. Glad you were able to get everything done. <br /><br />Feeling settled in a little bit by now? Hope so. But moving stuff and changing stuff is hard, and definitely takes time to adjust to. Hope the rest of your week is splendid! And full of wonderful things. :)Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09590701834142754842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-787323131254633449.post-60687751627488410732013-04-10T08:07:19.724-07:002013-04-10T08:07:19.724-07:00Ikea is amazing!

I actually only went for the first time about two weeks ago, when my Housies (my cross version of "housemates" and "roomies") and I first began getting the house ready for living in! I bought my white under curtains there, as well as my bookcase. I looked for outer curtains, but didn't see any that I liked in my color schemes. <br /><br />Leaving home....was....and is....so hard!! It's not even been 24 hours yet and I miss it so tremendously! But I'm going home this evening to gather stuff/hang out, so it'll barely seem like I was even gone. ;)Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07285214309808207294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-787323131254633449.post-9070702062445716102013-04-09T22:29:46.926-07:002013-04-09T22:29:46.926-07:00;);)LadyMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05248139374473395970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-787323131254633449.post-34245948020102969662013-04-09T17:11:56.893-07:002013-04-09T17:11:56.893-07:00Wow, Kellie, you certainly have had quite the week...Wow, Kellie, you certainly have had quite the week! Love, love, love the grey! One of my friends did her apartment in grey and found some adorable grey/black/white curtains at Ikea...it was so adorable! I'm planning to use lots of grey in my own apartment someday. I felt like you when I had to move out for college, including crying myself to sleep. Family is such an amazing blessing, but it is so hard to fly the coop when it's time.

There will be more dance pictures once I have time to get settled into my new house and actually give my full attention to picture editing. <br /><br />Tonight should be my first night at my new house!! Excited, scared, heartbroken and just plain READY are some of the emotions going through my head right now! After work and after my brothers get home from their respective work places, I hope to load my life up into our van and take it over! :) I asked Katheryn to spend my first night with me...you know, to cushion the blow of being gone. :) But I hear you're coming over on Fri? I'll certainly be coming home to hang out! I'm sure there's LOTS to talk about. ;)Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07285214309808207294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-787323131254633449.post-26240739759311428942013-04-09T11:20:51.652-07:002013-04-09T11:20:51.652-07:00Isn't gray the prettiest color?

And I don't think gray walls are drab at all, I think it's especially happy and cheery! Plus you can add so many different accent colors, since it'll go with almost anything!<br /><br />My room color scheme is going to be gray, tan and dusty blue. With some white accents, like the wall trim and my lace under-curtains. But as in any decorating, it's going to be a work in progress for a long time! :) I chose Ben Moore's "Stonington Gray," it still has a few faint hints of blue in certain lights, but overall, it's a gorgeous light gray! I'm SO happy with it! I know that gray is such a hard color to get right (goes blue or purple so fast!) but thanks to a lot of Pinteresting, I think I got my dream color!

It must be a spring thing right now to want to redo our rooms...or in my case, do it for the first time! I ended up using a different swatch than the ones shown above - I chose Ben Moore's "Stonington Gray." It still has almost a faint hint of blue in some lights, but overall, it's a gorgeous pale, cheerful gray!
