my inspiration...

for the accent wall i'm forced to paint. before i talk about the accent wall, check out my inspiration. it's a satellite image of the gulf coast. i used to live there. near apalachicola and st george island. the chamber of commerce gave these posters out free when i lived there. i love the colors.
i framed it. it hangs in a guest bedroom. a green guest bedroom. the same bedroom where hubby and i removed some shelving on an opposite wall last week and spackled the holes so that it looks like this.
it was after we did this that i ran to the garage for the leftover green paint. and searched. and searched. and found out there was no leftover green paint. and found that i didn't remember the name of the paint color. or the brand. very unlike me. i can tell you every other paint color in this house and our previous house. well, and probably the house before that. this room, nope. not a clue.

hence, i'm forced to paint an accent wall. tempe star from sherwin williams. it's a dark blue with a hint of green and grey. i think it'll bring out the blues in the poster nicely.
oh, and did i mention.... in 72 hours company arrives.
