Although they were not what I was expecting, I do like my new colors I have in my foyer and den. We had planned to paint the entire area yellow but once Chad started with the yellow I had him stop. It was SO BRIGHT! It's amazing how the color on the sample never quite matches the color once it dries on the wall!!! I was sort of freaking out thinking about how bright it would be in my entire den/foyer. We decided to paint the den blue and then see how the yellow/blue combo turned out. If it didn't work, we would just paint the foyer blue too. To my surprise, the blue sort of toned down the yellow (if that's possible). Now don't get me wrong, it is still bright, but it doesn't seem near as bright with the dark blue up against it! We plan to paint the playroom yellow (which is to the right in the first pic) and then that will finish off the area. Next we will move to bedrooms!
Several have asked about Addie Grace's room and it is getting close to being finished. Chad painted it first. It's lime green and the bedding is pinks/white/green. I still have to get curtains and a chair recovered and a rug so I am waiting for the "debut"! I have already picked the fabric, I just have to find the time to go buy it! I will post pics soon.

Looks great!
You will get used to the yellow! We painted our sitting room yellow almost a year ago I guess and it made me want to cry at first. It looked like Big Bird vommitted in there. I tried adding the furniture then it looked like a bumble bee! I have gotten used to it now and like it.
