Perhaps you got yourself into a home with intentions of making it your own right away, but you've hit a speed bump with unforeseen repairs, extra costs or other projects that take precedent over painting. Maybe you knew you would have to make it work all along for a period of time or maybe you really liked the previous decorator's wall color choices from the get but now find it difficult to makes any kind of sense from Weetie Yellow or Tijuana Teal. Possibly your own decisions in lacquer are driving you up the "wall". I've been in all of these places and the trick to living with and being proud of what you have IS to make it your own...and luckily I've found it isn't as tricky as you may think with a little direction, inspiration, and a break down of the color wheel so your color combos are eye-catching yet eye-pleasing.
