The Gray Day

Each day for the last four years when I have walked into the house from the garage, I have passed these amazing gray shutters leaning against a stack of plastic bins.  I'd glance at them and think, "what will I do with you?" and each day they would say to me, "don't sell us, we can be something you'd love".

So the day finally came when I decided to act on that conversation.

I have been having that want-to-do-something-different 

feeling since New Years,

and I thought I'd try them in the Entry above my white console.

You see, I've had this issue with gray and tan.

I wasn't sure that they would work together,

 but I thought I'd give it a shot.

I think I like them together...

The white helps balance them out.

I moved my round white mirror to the other wall.

I'll see how long this stays like this,

but for now...it's satisfied my urge to make a change.

What kind of changes have you made since New Years?
