You have a beautiful home, but this is why I'm not entering this year...it's about colors, not just design. Love your peacock blue. Go a little crazy in the rest of your home. You won't regret it!

After this year's fall colors contest I've decided I absolutely hate striped walls. They look even worse with artwork that is hung on top of them with complete disregar to the stripes themselves. However, I think these examples work. In the first, the stripes are the primary design element and also sort of match the wood floor. In the second, I think they're really important to the sort of classical greek feel of the room and carry you from one part of the room to another.

Aww thanks guys for the nice comments. I have to admit, after reading the comments on a few other places, I was a little worried.

Ok, SO the paint colors that I do remember are...
Kitchen: Pear Green (Benjamin Moore). Living room: Porch Swing Blue (Martha Stewart) Bedroom: some pearescent color from Benjamin Moore (can't remember which, but there aren't that many). Studio: antiquity (Sherwin Williams). I feel really bad that I can't remember the Hallway color (or find the swatch at the moment). I do know that is was from Lowe's and I'll never buy paint there again. They ran out of eggshell when I was about a quart away from finishing. It's a little thin in places..grrr

Annyway, 'bout the furniture, my couch is from Nebraska Furniture Mart. Living in Kansas City we have no Ikea, no H&M, no nothing. The only the we have that is special is NFM. We are very deprived. It was very cheap, and there's probably no way you would recognize it. My coffee table was purchased from urban outfitters when I got online one day and noticed they were having a 30% off everything sale. I like it. And it goes with my lone CB2 purchase (my lamp).

Thanks again for all your comments. This has been fun!

it's nice, but...do people live here? kind of looks like a work space (a really cool workspace)

Lorie99...you GET OUT. Yours is MY (along with everyone elses)
favorite.

I'll have to get back to you all on all the swatch colors. I'm not too great at remember that sort of stuff. The paintings in the last picture, the bedroom, and over the couch are all done by me. I'm too poor right now to buy any art done buy other people EXCEPT for the print in the hallway. It's by the artist "kirinco" on etsy.

Given the guidlines of this contest, I have no idea why it has so many "long-shot" votes. I think your colors are amazingly "bold, beautiful and colorful". Maybe I missed the part about your apartment having to be well designed and trendy as well...and have tourquoise walls.

Insta-finalist from me!

you win.

I like your bedroom. It makes me want to take a nap (that's a good thing). Let's hope you're not the only Kansas Kid representin' (I'm from Roeland Park and submitted my photos a couple days ago)

I bought the green Method soap to match my green kitchen too! Love green in the kitchen.

(that color yellow I mean)
