new picture

Peter discovered this painting in a furniture store in Walla Walla this past weekend. He fell in love with it right away and I am a sucker for any farm picture. We both knew instantly where it needed to go in our living room. When we got home we were so excited to hang it. When we hung it we both realized right away how awful it looked with the color of our living room. The current color of the living room was the original color when we moved in. We didn't hate it enough to paint it and decided other rooms in the house took precedent. So on Memorial Day we impulsively went to Benjamin Moore bought bright white paint to match the trim. It makes the picture pop and also makes the room so much brighter. If you know me at all you know I'm a sucker for white so we are starting a trend with our white wall, white entertainment center, and white rug. I almost think white looks better when most everything else is white with a few pops of color here and there. It's the Scandi in me!

  1. Love it! Love cows! I bet it makes the living room even more relaxing to have the white walls and the cows reminding you of what you love and want from life. Simple, down to earth, country-type living.
