Hello Everyone!
I hope you are all having a great week.
I have been getting a lot of questions about my home and shop this month, so I thought it would be a good idea to do a question and answers post today.
What color did you paint your living room and bedroom?
I painted our living room and bedroom a warm white called country dairy,
it is a Ralph Lauren color.
Home Depot still has the Ralph Lauren colors in their system.
I used the eggshell finish.
How did you secure the doors to the wall?
We actually didn't secure the doors to the wall.
We just leaned them up against the wall.
The doors are secured in place with our bed.

Did you make your clock?
I wish I could say I made the clock, but I purchased the clock.
It is a Roost brand clock. I found a site online where you can buy it...
What color did you paint your living room?
I painted this room a warm gray, called pearl gray.
It is a Martha Stewart color from Lowe's.
They still have the color in their system.
I use the Valspar Signature paints at Lowe's.
I used their satin finish.
I have tried this color before in a room that doesn't have a lot of light coming in, and I actually didn't like how it looked in that room. I just want to warn you that it can look muddy if you do not have a lot of light coming into the room.
How do you keep your whites white?
I really only use Mrs. Meyers detergent, along with oxiclean.
I also use these antique sheets to cover my couches....
What color did you paint your daughters' beds?
I used two different shades of whites when painting their beds.
I first painted a layer of Decorator's White on their beds, and then lightly brushed on a coat
of White Dove. Both colors are Benjamin Moore colors.
I like to use two different shades of whites when painting my furniture....
What color did you paint your girls room?
I painted my girls' room a Martha Stewart's color called Newsprint.
Newsprint.
I still love this color in their room.
It is a really light gray color, and really helps make the whites pop.
How did you make the pompoms?
I purchased a pompom kit at Michael's.
We used these to decorate the inside of a tent at my sister's wedding too.

What is your favorite white paint to use on furniture?
My favorite cool white is, Decorator's White, a Benjamin Moore color.
This is the color of paint I used on my table.
My favorite warm white, is White Dove, a Benjamin Moore color.
My favorite gray to use on furniture is, Horizon.
Do you use only lavender to fill your lavender pillows or do you also use a filler?
We use only dried organic lavender buds to fill our pillows.
Will you be selling bistro chairs?
I will be adding bistro chairs to the shop soon....
I hope this helps answer a few of your questions...
Thank you for everyone's get well wishes, my family is doing much better now, unfortunately two of my children came down with pneumonia this past month, I had to take time away from my blog,
so thank you for being so patient with me.
I am still working on getting caught up on emails!
Take Care,
Maria
