Turns out it IS easy being green

Check out our painted hallway upstairs and our green accent wall at the top, completed on Saturday:
We also painted the wall across from the accent wall green as well:

The green feels remarkably more relaxing than the awful coral red accent color I bought at Sherwin Williams. I should have known that any color named "Gladiola" did not belong in a home not featured in a Tennessee Williams play. Every time Woody rounded a corner and caught an eyeful of Gladiola (again it sounds like a big ol' lady from a T.W. play -- "Come on over sugar and get an eyeful of Gladiola!"), he let out a shocked "WHOA!" And it wasn't a Bill and Ted "Whoa!," it was a horrified and blow to the chest "WHOA!"

The two shades of green now upstairs feel like the perfect shades for an area used for reading, writing...and getting your Playstation on:
