thanks tracey..this project was a while ago, but i'm happy it's been revived..it was a fun project.. :) side note: i'm very bad with colors, so most homes i do have some combo of blue/red with them..i just listed a house last weekend, and we painted the master bathroom 3 different times..we finally hit the color luckily, but an interior designer, i am not :)hey mark, thanks for checking out the blog!
