All the Leaves are Brown, and the Walls are Gray

We just sold a rental property and when I went over to take pictures with the real estate agent (Real Estate Agent?  I never know when I should capitalize job titles.) I was reminded that last year I painted every inch of the place the prettiest gray.  We did that to show the place, to create a neutral palette that would appeal to everyone who stepped in.


I know gray (or grey if you're Canadian or a McHotDr type) is super in and trendy right now, and YES, I personally love it....but that's not really the question here.


Do you like every room in the house the same color?  So that was for uniformity in a rental, but many many people like to create that peaceful, monochromatic feel where they live.


Every room the same color.  I'm loving it.


I could have the same wall color in every room (I think.  I'm getting nervous like someone is going to make me.) but I don't think I could have completely neutral, monochromatic everything.


I would feel paralyzed with limitation.

But walls, walls I could do.


Maybe?  Maybe if I had a sun porch I could commit.


Lord make me joyful for what you have given me and not bitter for what you haven't.

What about you?  Is your house a crayon box or a neutral palette?  I want to know.

We walked into a car dealership yesterday and Baylor announced "WOW! Y'all have some awesome Volvos!"
