Navy Blue

Been a REALLY LONG time. In fact I cannot believe I am posting but if I don't do something the least bit creative I will go crazy.  Not only do I work like a dog at my new job but it is also so intense. I am pretty much exhausted all the time and I ain't got any mojo left for anything. ANYWAYS I have a hankering to redo my entry hall which presently looks like this:


This is the way it use to look, now it has white wainscot and a white lacquered low cabinet


I want something different and am so loving navy blue:

but I think it will be too dark so maybe a color closer to cobalt in a wash:


The above are all by Porter's Paints. I have their fan deck and alot of these colors are a bit off but you get the idea. I am leaning towards the one in the center. And I cannot leave it just a solid color. I am thinking of using one of these stencils in a grid pattern:

I want some humor in the entryway. The flying pigs are hilarious. I also need alot more love in my life and I adore the heart tattoo. Not sure what colors I would use for that. What do you think?

  1. Love the navy! I've been looking to paint a room something like this too. If you want humor then go with a combo thats unexpected maybe?

  3. Ooooh Cat, stencil the pigs! Would love to see them flying in splendour and I know you'll make them look fab. If you decide to choose either of them send me a private email. Love the deep blue
