Finally adding color to the upstairs

After 13 years of the original off-white, we finally painted the upstairs with some color. We really liked the taupe tones we had used downstairs, and so we continued that for most of the upstairs, painting the landing spaces in Fine Grain (DE6213) and our master bedroom in the one-notch darker Pigeon Gray (DE6214). In the guest bedroom, we went just a little bold and chose a green (DE6263 Pistachio Shell). We added crown molding in both bedrooms. And we painted the fireplace mantel and the bathroom cabinets dark.

And note that Florencia has been retired from her position over the mantel and is now gracing the guest bedroom. In her place is a 1940's oil painting of the Place de la Madeleine in Paris, which George scored using the One Kings Lane website.
