Oooooh it is looking GORG so far! If we were local Kelli would love to paint for you in exchange for an ice cold Diet Coke- lol. She is crazy for loving to paint! Can’t wait for the reveal, Jen! 🙂

In reply to Rachel. I am the same way Rachel! It's so much easier to be able to see what it will look like than to try to visualize it my head :) xoxo

I must go check out Colortopia. I inherited an awful dark red kitchen wall from the previous owner and have gotten so used to it that I can’t even picture another color in my mind! Thanks for the tip and I love the paint color you chose.

That is so perfect – I need to know what something’s going to look like before I take the plunge, so a tool like this is perfect for me. I can especially freak over paint sometimes. And good to know that you got those cabinets from Ikea!! I’ve been looking for ones similar to that for a while now.

Hi Darlene!!

I got the cabinetsin the room from Ikea. And the desk is from Pottery Barn Teen. I have seen alot of desks that are DIY and are very similar though too!

In reply to Deneen. Thanks Deneen!! Yes, check it out. It really is a very useful tool. And to make your color palette, you can use their inspiration boards to get your palette nd then drag it up to your folder and it will save the colors for all of your projects. xoxo

In reply to Adrienne Alvis. Hi Adrienne!! I really am loving white too!! I just painted my new office all white. In that space I painted the walls and the trim the same color. But the trim was a different finish. The walls are eggshell and the trim is semi-gloss (or high gloss). You want the trim to have a glossier finish. But in this office the walls are Decorator White, which is not a plain white. It's a little warmer white and I left the trim a plain white. xoxoxo
