Very pretty!  Very close to my winter comforter, Ralph Lauren Nanking). 

 

You had a lamp on the other thread, IIRC, that would go perfectly with the comforter.

 

Every house I have has at least one room painted what I call *Doris Day Blue*.  Just a speck lighter than your color maybe.  And I always paint the trim a high gloss off white (Swiss Cream?).  Very happy color.

You really did luck out on the paint color.  I think it is the perfect shade of blue.

my mission today🙃😉 but I have to say ... I almost bought another 🐇🐰 but I was good - I know Bed Bath & Beyond doesn't have 🐰 But Michaels & Joannes is right next door!


 

 

Let's face it, you are to the place you need supervision when shopping! LOL.

 

I wonder if there is a service that provides that sort of thing. If anyone finds such a service, let me know, because I have been restocking the towels in our house the last few months, and I now need an intervention. I was at JC Penney today 'spending' my rewards points and now I have two more washer loads full of new towels to deal with. 

 

I could dry a third world country with the amount of towels I have now. Yet another of my weaknesses.

 

We need help!

hmmmmm I was at JCP today too using my rewards. I really didn't need anything so I ended up buying some towels - Royal Velvet Egyptian cotton style. They are washed & in closet waiting for my spouse to "not like them!" He's very fussy, but, I thought I'd sneak a few in (plus donated others to local animal shelter which were from Kohls - Apt.9 he liked them).

 

Now....I'll tell you a secret I was in Hobby Lobby and almost brought another 🐇 home but I thought "nope, don't even try to hop in my cart!" 

 

I did find my bedskirt at BB&B but had to order so at least I accomplished something today!

 

Yes, I need supervision LOL but I just keep thinking about my kids & their "estate sale" so I'm being good!!! (At least for today!)

love your bed/bath. I think my blue would be to "dark" since your bathroom has a lot of gold/beige undertones. I wonder a paler blue would be a good fit maybe a more neutral pallet to blend everything as my furniture is cottage cream & white fixtures in bathroom.

 

I'd suggest you go to Sherwin-Williams or Lowes, Home Depot they have great color specialist. I took pics, bedding pillow & color swatches I picked. The decor person at SW mixed me several blues in sample cans ( painted swatches) before I decided on it so I could see color in day & night.

 

i guess your taking the wallpaper down? I hope they primed the walls and it's easy to come down.

 

PS: love the prints!

@homedecor1 thanks for your input.  Exactly!  I need to stay to neutral or warm blues because of the tile floor...it has some yellows in it.....I could always do a sand color or a cream......but that might be too boring.  The wallpaper is definitely coming down!  I will work with a specialist....I don't wanna mess anything up!
