You can thank B&N for the photos on this one.
We decided that it's been since 2006/2007 that most of our main floor was painted, and colors and styles have changed fairly substantially (as have our personal styles). It's time to give it a fresh look. We're adopting Cloud White as our basis for the fresh look. We've declared the project "operation white-out". Noah got in on the action.

We have the kitchen, dining, and back entry-way finished. The front entry itself is done, but the transition up the stairs is not yet. We're working our way through all the common living areas. I think the office is going to be light gray rather than white and it can't get done until some plaster repair is done also.
I found some bright color accents to dress up the dining area a little, but need more of those. I still need to get art on the living room walls (which we painted last year, yes, we move very slowly sometimes). I want a larger and bright color entry rug for the back door, but it has to be the washable flat-weave type.
Kitchen, dining, back entry, and laundry: white base (celery/lime green in laundry), with bright greens and turquiose/blue accents. Fresh, new. And, you know me, I won't have "project complete" pictures for ages and then some. You better just come on over and check it out!
