Beachify



    Inconclusive,indefinite,irresolute..    These are all words Google uses to describe my disorder, but to put it in Layman's terms... I simply have a hard time making up my mind. I'm sure one day they will have a pill for it, but until then I will just continue on changing my wall colors.
   You know it's gotten out of hand, when the first thing a person says to you is "So Mandy,what color are your walls this week?" Even though they may be exaggerating just a tad, there is a lot of truth in this statement.
  For instance, when we moved in, our kitchen was already painted a deep sagey green, and at the time I was kind in love with aqua. I ended up repainting the kitchen "Glass bottle blue".. I absolutely loved it... Uh, for a few months anyway. 
   Okay, so after that I developed a sudden fondness for the ultra trendy Yellow and Gray, and consequently had to repaint my kitchen again.After several attempts, I finally settled on Banana Cream. ( It wasn't what I pictured in my mind, but it would do)
    Well, a few months later I came to the realization that the yellow and gray wasn't really working for me either, but hang on a second and I'll get back to this subject.
   Meanwhile I absolutely fell in love with the new fashion trend colors of Mint,peaches, and corals and thought to myself  "Self, that would look really nice in your living room!"...Guess what? It did, it really did! Yay! I was finally happy with a color decision! 
   Wait for it, Wait for it,.... Yes those colors did look very nice in my living room, EXCEPT ( you know there always has to be an except)... Except my husband is a tiny bit obsessed with deer hunting, and I currently have not one, but two deer carcasses hanging from my wall. One of which is a hideous skull!!!
    Okay are you getting the picture now?.. For some odd reason the ultra feminine colors of peach, mint and coral don't seem to jive too well with dead animals. I know, I was shocked myself!
   Well, now this brings me to the title of this post BEACHIFY... Okay, so I was scrolling the Internet the other day and discovered this site called Pinterest BAHAHAHAHAHA.. No, I'm kidding. I'm a full fledged Pinterest junkie! Some folks drink coffee to wake up in the morning. Not me, I just drink in the visual delights of Pinterest. 
   Anyways, where were we?.. Oh yeah, so I'm getting my daily fix, and I see a series of pics with beau-ti- ful light blue green walls complete with seashells, lanterns and the whole nine yards. 
  Now I'm just gonna cross my fingers and toes and hope that the weathered beach look will blend harmoniously with the deceased stuffed animals. Any how we are now in the early stages of    beachifying the living room, kitchen and laundry area. So far I've purchased a similar color called "Ocean sea breeze", beachified my living room shelves, and made a sign from an old piece of paneling. Ta-daaaaa!!!
