Sunshine Yellow

If you know me in the least… you know my incredible LOVE for the color yellow. It has always been one of my favorite colors. I guess because it is associated with sunshine, and I do enjoy a sunshiney day.
Thursday and Friday were filled with a lot of painting this glorious color.
At first I was a bit afraid I had picked a neon shade with the first stroke of my brush, but thankfully after seeing it all come together it was just what I wanted.
Bright
Sunny
Happy
A cheery room
Just what a kitchen and living room should be. 🙂

The picture above shows where we took down the wall… You can see a glimpse of the cedar header and post, we had to have it because it was a load-bearing wall.

While I was painting, I told my Mom… this reminds me of lemons, which reminds me… I want to make a lemon cake. One with lemon curd between the layers.
Another time…
Now, we must paint.
And we certainly did.
I will post a picture of my kitchen soon, I want to finish up first.
I want to run some ivy around the top of my cabinets.

Behind the couch I plan on making a collage of family pictures in a myriad of frames. It will be a work in progress… I will take pics along the way.

As we were sitting in the living room this morning getting our day started, I looked around and gave a happy, contented sigh.
At almost the same time Shannon looked over and said, I really like how the living room looks.
Now that says a lot!

Have a great day my friends.
