I called myself a decisive person in training in my last post. I just want to reiterate that. Anywho, I decided to change the paint color in the kitchen. We (I) haven't actually painted yet, but I was set on a particular color (smoked oyster by Valspar). A few things happened that disabled me from getting the paint when I wanted to. Luckily so. Now I've gone back to the original thought of painting the kitchen a light gray. think long think wrong right? Oh well. Next, I decided to carry out a modern Moroccan theme throughout the downstairs. Since we have an open floor plan, you can see all rooms from a central location. To make each room different would look crazy. I was browsing the internet looking for inspiration for Moroccan design. I love the jewel tones, and most of all the unique patterns. Here are a few images that I enjoy: On our trip to South Beach last year, we stayed at a wonderful hotel, Palmer House, which had a modern Moroccan theme in the rooms. It also solidified the love of Moroccan decor. Here are some pics: credits 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8-12
