I spent most of this morning on lunch duty at Chloe’s school. It was the fourth time I’d had to reschedule. First Halle had a fever, then I forgot (I’m not good at rescheduling), then Chloe had a fever and I finally made it today. This was the perfect day for it though. After lunch the kids get to have recess and it was beautiful. Warm and sunny without a cloud in the sky, it made me think of spring and color. So, I thought I’d share some of my favorite colorful spaces with you.

Do any of you have thoughts of repainting this spring? I always think of repainting. When I was doing the painting I showed you yesterday, Travis said, “Uh oh, Amy’s got the paint out!” I do get a little tired of repainting the same rooms over and over so I think I’ll be painting furniture, decor items, and pictures this spring. I’m looking forward to that.
All of these pictures are from Southern Living and Coastal Living.
I’ve got the paint bug, too, This time I may just hire someone–I’m feeling very blah that all my walls are so dingy.
Hiring painters? That would be nice
I’m the painter around here but I’ve painted every room in the house (some twice!) and I’m tired of those big projects. Good luck! Can’t wait to see what you do!
I’ve never hired anyone either–sorta nervous! Eek. I feel like I’d be wasting money. Then again it would take me a year to do what they could sweep through and finish in a week.
I don’t think it’s a waste of money. If I’m ever in a spot that I can hire painters I will. No cleanup, no ceiling bumps…sounds like heaven
This is the first time we’ve had the money to pay someone else–and when it’s all over it probably will feel heavenly! We painted every room ourselves in ou townhome, even the high walls of the stairs.
I’m always needing to paint something. Probably because I’ve lived in this house for three + years and have only painted two and a half rooms and one of those was hired out because it started with a leak. Actually it’s more than a half, but it’s not finished so I can’t really say it’s three. I have the paint, I had the time today, but I also have a really bad back ache. Back ache and painting walls don’t go well together. So, anyway…if you want to paint walls, I’ve got them. Otherwise, I am excited to see what you find to paint next.
Also…I have a hard time deciding what color to paint. I love all those pictures. ALL of them. Yum, yum, yum. I love the paint in the boy’s bedroom, but it took me three months to finish, so maybe I’m intimidated too. Hiring out sounds good after this paragraph. bye.
Hiring out sounds good to me too. Although I wouldn’t mind helping you finish your laundry room
I think it would literally take me an hour and a half to finish the painting. Even the clean up wouldn’t take long, and I feel SO MUCH better today. I woke up almost completely pain free and straight up and down.
I have another chiropractic appointment in 40 minutes and I am praying for good results. I don’t want to spend my 40th birthday with and ice pack on my back. Today though…I have kids coming home from school early (11:45) because of the coming storms. I’d rather paint without them in the house. 
Well, sure. I was thinking we should paint your island
Oh, and happy about your back. Are you guys going on a special trip or anything for the big 4-0? I’m thinking I’d like to be tropical in November 
Yes, painting the island is a great idea, not sure if Kris feels that way though, and yes, we’re going on a trip.
The boys are on spring break the week after my birthday so Grandma and Granddaddy are coming up from Florida to stay with them while Kris and I go somewhere. No, I don’t know where, but he does. If you want the scoop I’m sure he’ll tell you, but I’m to be surprised.
I love that yellow barn door. OH! I love spring colors. I would really like to paint all of these beige walls white or a cool color. I am not a warm browns kind of girl. I love yellows and blues.
I wish I could just dive into those photos! They are so cheery and bright.
LOVE all the color!! Right now I have been swimming in neutrals like Mississippi Mud, Cream in my Coffee and Latte *all paint colors*
Ready for something bright and cheery for spring!
Your kitchen would look so cute in something bright. Either walls or accessories. Can’t wait to see what you do
