My New White Bedroom

It was just brought to my attention that I haven't had a decorating post in a while. I didn't realize how long it had been.  How time flies when you're having fun and fun for me is painting! I recently painted my bedroom white and what a difference it makes. It is one of my missions in life to convince all doubters out there that white is not only a COLOR but a GREAT COLOR for walls.  My bedroom had previously been painted a sad beige and I'm sorry but beige does not go with everything! I love white because it does go with everything and it makes a room feel so fresh, light and bright. If you have been following my blog before this, you know that I have been slowly transitioning my house from builder beige to white. Here are some other rooms that I have painted white:

The Entry

The Living Room

The Laundry Room

The Dining Room



You might say, "But Alyssa, white walls are boring." Well, they can be if you don't have anything else in a room. But the fact is there will be furniture, fabrics, artwork and accessories that will be the interest in the room. You will have a blank canvas so that you can do anything and even change your color scheme often without having to completely repaint walls. It actually took me a long time to realize that I loved white walls. It has always been a habit of mine to pull photos out of magazines of rooms that I like. One day, after going through my pile of accumulated pictures, I noticed that all of the rooms had one thing in common... yes, you guessed it...white walls.

So maybe I haven't convinced you to do it for yourself but hopefully, I have at least convinced you not to be a hater of  painted white walls!
