Greg's had some days at home in the last couple of weeks, and painted our spare bedrooms - this one is Lexi's - she sleeps in this bed whenever she's here. She only will have the small beige pillows in the bed with her though, everything else has to go on the floor in a very OCD-ish order. :) Shocker. 
I really love the gold color - the room feels really cozy and warm. Last night the kids spent the night and the "funder" woke Lexi up - it was so sad! I had to bring her downstairs and cuddle her until the storm quieted down. It's weird the way these pictures don't quite do the color justice - it's not nearly as "mustard" as these look, more gold.
This is Mason's room - more of a cocoa color. Looks good with the pink quilt ... I'm not sure how he ended up in the pink room but oh well. 
His crib is on the other wall - didn't take a picture of it because it is stripped down to the bare mattress today while I'm washing all his bedding ... a diaper was never made that that kid can't pee through in a night. :( And, these last two pictures are taken in the same room but the colors look totally different ... the bottom one is really closer to the real color, the top one looks too pink.I mostly posted these for Emily, who was asking about our new colors - our living room is the next project, which has really high ceilings, one wall painted a sort of dark seafoam green and the rest white. Our furniture is mauve/burgundy/blue/green, and we're having a hard time deciding what color to choose, and whether we should keep the green wall for accent or not. Suggestions?

Oh, Angie...those colors are beautiful! I have never even considered a cocoa color, but i love it. We have a similar gold color in our bedroom and we like it, too! As for your living room, it seems like you will make a good decision after seeing the other rooms. Those high ceilings do make it a bit trickier. I am lovin' that cocoa color! Thanks for sharing and I will post the kids rooms in a couple weeks when they are done. We haven't nailed down the colors in those rooms either. Say hi to your daughter and my bro and the kiddos! OK, Greg, too. :-)
I really do love that gold and like Emily I'm taken with that cocoa color too. I'd love to do a color change at one point. But it seems like such a daunting task, I especially love how Lexi and Mason have their own rooms. Hello to all.Sheila
It is sort of funny that the kiddos have their own rooms isn't it? How big of a house would you have to have for that to happen Sheila?? :) Some kinda mansion, for sure! Obviously those days are about to end with a new baby on the way ... although I doubt Lexi will ever give up ownership and Mason could probably care less, so it will all work out fine.
