Some Paint
I realized that I'd never posted pictures of the newly painted walls. So far, I'm partially there.
Here's the living room. This is exactly the color that I envisioned when I first purchased the unit. I found a very cool color wheel tool on the Miller Paint web site: it allowed me to input the primary paint chip number, and then spit out various combinations of the complementary colors. It doesn't really show in the picture, but the claret/plum has a lot of blue, so the color scheme is set for the rest of the place.
And here's the entry way, in blue green.
I'm going to paint the kitchen with two different shades of blue. And, I think I am settling on a patterned backsplash tile in blue, green and white, for contrast. I'll probably fill in many walls with a combination of accent colors and soft white, something that has a bit of blue in it. I'm quickly realizing that I dislike the toasted almond color that came with my unit. Color is so much more fun.
