sliver of the theater rm

Lucy is such a babe. Jackie called as I was making a zucchini casserole and asked why I wasn't sitting on Main Street with her right that minute watching the parade. I didn't have a good answer for her, so off I went to enjoy some hometown flavor. It was a pleasant summer evening, walking down the street, saying hello to old friends and neighbors. Sitting with Jackie at a parade is an event, she is a candy hording extraordinaire.

a little slice of what has been going on in the Theater Room, or aka, my room for the next x amount of time. {Frybaby, remember when we joked I'd only be here a year?}
I chose the wild Golden Cricket {professionally painted by PBPB, thnx guys!} color for the walls because of the lack of natural light in the basement and the need to create a feeling of warmth. Though, after taking the roller shade off today I was surprised by how much afternoon light could sneak in, given the chance. When the room is being used in the way it was intended and the idea is to create a fun place for chilling, the warm wall color will be a great jumping off place to create a pallet that matches the fun family who graciously lets me be a gnome in their basement. I never thought I'd EVER chose a yellow of any kind, it is a risky move, but this particular yellow has a lot of great gray and even a bit of green undertones and has yet to make me feel anxious or upset. {Something a bad yellow could easily do.} I can't wait to do curtains/accessories next. I'm thinking plush, warm fabrics with lots of texture and vibrant pattern without being loud or overbearing. Don't think it can be pulled done? Just wait for the updates! {but don't hold your breath, they won't come until I become gainfully employed again}
WOW, that was a lot to say about color, still with me?
