Do You Like WHite Walls, Colored Wall or Wall Pappered Walls

I have all of the above in our house. Upstairs I painted a wall mural for the grandkids of a happy frog with smiling sunflowers.

In the kitchen I have faux finish paper with a beautiful apple pear sculpted border.

In the living room I have Thomsas Kinkade border. In the dining room Combned Rose and Hydrandgea scultpted border.

In the rec room one red wall the others off white.

What do you have or like to have?

Wow! I'm spoiled for choice.
Like a typical male I can't make me mind up.

I don't give a hoot just so there's four of them.

I like white, although it is supposedly less fashionable these days. The rooms look a lot brighter, and reflect the tones in the rest of the decor.

My regular house has off-white walls with one bathroom in dark red. (My daughter was bored one weekend and decided we needed some color.)

My cabin is post and beam construction with off-white walls between the beams.

We have Northwoodsy decor in the main living area. The guest area in the walk-out basement is more cottage decor. One bedroom is "the bear room" with many bears on the walls. The other bedroom is "the bird room" with many birds in the decor.

My daughter was bored once again and painted little bear footprints around the ceiling of the bear room, little bird footprints around the ceiling in the bird room, and fireflies around the ceiling in the bathroom. My sister-in-law painted fall leaves around the door to the outside.

Carol,

Your house sounds eclectic like mine.

Ann, I agree about the size issue.

Joe, Your house sounds interesting and inviting.

David and Dick, You have the right spirit.

I'm in the middle of decorating my living room. My wife and I have decide to put up lining paper and then paint the walls. The lining paper helps add heat, I think. If you just paint the bare walls it becomes echoey as well, like an empty house sound. The paper help offset that sound making it feel more lived in. Of course that might just be in my mind.

What color are you going to paint the walls?

The feature wall will be a chocolate brown, something to tease the wife with, hehehe. and other three shall be off-white.

Sounds rich and gorgeous.
Our kids did their basement in chocolate brown.
