Color Me Badd

I kid you not, we have been slaving over the transit map paint drawing in Operation Oscar's Room every single night. The math is incredibly exhausting. Taping is just as bad. Why do we put ourselves through this? Oh, this is why.


We love color.

You should've seen the faces of the two jabrones working the paint center at Home Depot when I handed them our selected paint swatches. They probably thought I was color blind. I don't care; these colors are awe-some. It didn't occur to me until way later that our trio of paints are akin to the CMKY color model. Great minds think alike...anyone? **tap tap tap**

Now the universe has toyed with my daily web browsing and flooded my google reader with heaps of items of the same colors.






Below is a little teaser.


I have a Joey Lawrence "whoa!" moment every time I enter the room.

  5. Shut your mouth. That preview just gave me a heart murmur. I'm like you. Lee's always wondering what the hell is wrong with me for picking pain in the ass projects, but it's so worth it. You'll be over the trauma in days and your room will be insane! You really did a perfect job picking out the right paint colors.
