And it was all yellow. And red. And green.

More pictures! Aside from our kitchen, we have now painted just about everything we intend to paint for the moment. So here are the results. This is our red wall. Notice that we're not totally sure where we're going to put the desk, as it has appeared in two photos now in two completely different locations. The main issue is that frankly, our couch and coffee table pretty much make up our entire furniture collection, so certain areas are bare. But they're bare and painted!
It should be noted that we probably tried five different colors of red paint before we found something between "grape juice" and "blood spatter." Red is a tricky color.

Now we have a shot of the color in our office. I deeply love this color, so if you don't, then lie.

And last but not least, our bedroom. We chose this color that was called "Pear," which looked like a slightly yellow-tinged off-white, and which did not look NEARLY this yellow when we tested it. At first, we were kind of horrified by the brightness. But while this was certainly not the color we intended, it looks good, and it's a color I would probably have never had the guts to intentionally put on a wall. So now the theme song for this room is "Yellow" by Coldplay.

Thanks for sharing the pictures. I really like the colors you've chosen, and I *love* the red wall! I wanted to paint our kitchen red, but I think management here would have a problem with that!
