I whisper through my fingers and through my camera lens, of life, joy, beauty and family.
I always listen to the whispers...they will tell the truth, if you simply listen.

The Unveiling

Today is the day I share my new laundry room.  
I still need to get my pretty chandelier hung, but I'm awaiting Dear Hubby to squeeze it into his work schedule....
it is a lofty task for sure...
being the fixture is at least 12 feet vertical 
in the laundry room.


My goodness, it is so bright in my laundry room.
I sort of liked doing my laundry, before I had
my
new
room,
but now 
I believe 
I will like the task a bit more.
Look here as a reminder

of the before.

How do you like it?

Until next time....

"Our life is what our thoughts make of it."
Marcus Aurelius

Oh So Pretty.  
My Ionic Sky isn't as intensely colored as this sample room, but it is of the same hue.
I have a crystal chandelier to hang, if Hubby will do this for me.
I painted an entire wall yesterday and it turned out lovely, but
  I can't show you just yet.   
 I must finish my painting, first.
 Soon, you will see the final result.
Haha, I feel a bit like Candice Olson, designer extraordinaire.  

I am off to paint...see you later.

Ionic Sky
I·on·ic  (-nk)
adj.
1. Of or relating to Ionia or the Ionians.
2. Architecture Of or belonging to the Ionic order.
n.
The ancient Greek dialect of Ionia.
I picked up my gallon of paint today.  It's called Ionic Sky and I wanted to jump right into the can of beautiful blue paint.  If I hadn't had a horrific migraine this lovely summer day, I would have dipped my paintbrush into the creamy blue paint and stroked it onto the first wall of my laundry room.  I can barely wait to get it started.  I also checked out new washers and driers and found some beauties, but haven't decided on a pair yet...still dreaming, I am.  
Which area rug do you prefer?
I like all three very much, but I do have to decide of course.
Keep in mind my Dear Doggies will be lying on this rug.

Rug Number 1?
 Rug Number 2?
Rug Number 3?

Gathering Ideas

ravinia nights - the laundry room traditional laundry room
Milford, MA Showroom modern laundry room
mudroom / 2nd laundry room traditional laundry room
shabby nest traditional laundry room
  

                            Which idea is your favorite?
                I like Creamy White, but I'm rather partial to the 
                                               Robin's 
                                                 Egg 
                                                Blue.  
                         Just maybe, 
                                 the stack-able appliances 
                                              will end up 
                                                        in my 
                                                            dream book
                                                                   too.  
                                                                 T'would leave more room for Dear Doggies.
