 Don’t be fooled by this lovely color!  It’s an optical illusion or something.

2010-08-19_001 A while back a friend of mine mentioned she had been reading my blog and said how perfectly homemakerish I was…So here is what it looked like under my couch this morning.  You know, to clear things up!  : )  I have a few more kitchen shots to further my point in the future.

 This is my 5 year old…today is day three on the outfit (day and night).

So the paint color…

the lighting, both outdoor and from our fixtures, is a problem.  I have now added 2 1/2 cups of white paint to the paint and it is still looking crazy yellow on the wall.  So after three years of going with ‘let’s leave all of the fixtures as is until we get to redoing the whole room’ I am ready to start bringing them down.  But where to start?  I mean look at the competion:

(yes, it has only had one working bulb for a long, long time)

Here’s your chance:

Which one is the worst?  Who goes first? 

 

For the sake of my pride I will say that the boys have some good looking lighting going on:

So this is exactly what I wanted.  Unfortunately the real deal doesn’t look like this at all!  I am going to try adding more white tomorrow!
