I figured I would follow painted floors with painted ceilings.  Still a personality show stopper!  The problem I have is I like many different styles.  One minute I want more color and character in my house and the next I want serene, sophisticated pallets.  How could you possibly be agitated in the room looking out towards the water?  Much like my wardrobe, I am drawn to accessories and unique pops of color but would tire quickly of pattern and color everywhere.  The problem with decorating, is if you get a wild hair and mistakenly go bold, it's a bit more costly than reselling a pair of shoes.  Of course the answer to that is to learn to do more things in the house myself but that didn't make the new year's resolution list.  Maybe next year...
