Master Bedroom Accent Wall

Well yesterday I finally painted color in our bedroom.  I've wanted to do it since we've moved in but have struggled trying to figure out what color to paint it.

I felt like we needed to have a comforter first (we've been using a quilt Wes' sister made for him), so that we could pull a color from the fabric.  

Well, Happy Birthday to me!  I finally got one!
(It's actually a Duvet cover, found new at Goodwill.  Sweet!).

Then came the tricky part of picking which color to choose from on the fabric.  

Out of all the colors on the blanket I picked the green.

And then I brushed a few strokes of paint on the wall and asked myself, "Why?  Why am I always drawn to the ugliest greens?"
 Seriously!
What. Is. Wrong. With. Me? :)

After picking the color I noticed that the comforter AND the picture above the bed BOTH have a graphite gray in them.  WHY?  WHY DIDN'T I PICK THAT COLOR?  :) (I'm totally not yelling, just maybe expressing hair pulling feelings).

But thankfully, I actually like the color now after finishing the wall.  

Here it is all finished.



Sometimes with paint I guess it just takes being a little brave.
