Kim Wilson of <a href="http://www.sandandsisal.com/2012/05/laundry-room-makeover.html" target="_blank">Sand & Sisal</a> decided that since she had to spend so much of her time doing laundry ("with two messy teen girls, two dirty, sweaty, little boys, a hubs who never unrolls his gym socks!" Ha!!), then her laundry room had to at least be beautiful! She did a stellar job on the makeover, don't you think?? She used one of my favorite paint colors on the walls–<a href="http://www.sherwin-williams.com/homeowners/color/find-and-explore-colors/paint-colors-by-family/SW6211-rainwashed/" target="_blank">"Rainwashed" by Sherwin Williams</a>. I especially love it next to the fresh white beadboard ceiling and crown molding that they installed. The sorting station is absolutely genius too!! Read all about this inspiring space and see lots more pics (including before's) right <a href="http://www.sandandsisal.com/2012/05/laundry-room-makeover.html" target="_blank">here</a>!</div></center><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Love turquoise?

When the owners of this cozy mountain home moved from D.C. to Park City, Utah, they hired interior designer <a href="http://www.elizabethhagueinteriors.com/" target="_blank">Elizabeth Hague</a> and architect <a href="http://www.gtmarchitects.com/" target="_blank">George Myers</a> to design them a home with a traditional Eastern aesthetic...no typical timbered mountain home for this family! The beautiful fabrics and rugs inspired the paint colors, and get this, Elizabeth chose more than 30 different shades (I'll share a few below). Finish your tour of the home with more photographs by <a href="http://johngranen.com/" target="_blank">John Granen</a>, and read the heartwarming story over at <a href="http://www.traditionalhome.com/design_decorating/howwelive/once-upon-time-west_ss1.html" target="_blank">Traditional Home</a>! <br /><br /><br /><i><b>Paint Sources</b></i><br /><i>Master Sitting Room: "Serene Breeze" #449 Benjamin Moore</i><br /><i>Dining Room: "Pale Smoke" #1584 Benjamin Moore</i><br /><i>Living Room: "Sea Salt" #SW6204 Sherwin-Williams</i><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Love turquoise?
