I have no coverings on the back of our house so I can see the woods & lots of sunshine! Rooms filled with light & changing color outside are tough to paint. The sunlight, and moonlight, change our paint colors hour-by-hour. Our compromise is a banana cream which goes from a warm creamy neutral to salmon-tinged yellow that looks great with one wall painted cranberry red. Red is my favorite color so we need a backdrop for all my red "stuff" and fabrics. I bet your orange/gold drapery changes with the light as well! Do what you like so your home reflects who you guys are. I think it looks marvelous; makes me want to meet the folks who live there!<BR/>Suzanne G in NC-a lurker :}Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9291442.post-92003555563290551632008-12-10T17:14:00.000-05:002008-12-10T17:14:00.000-05:00I've written before and mentioned orange is my neu...I've written before and mentioned orange is my neutral! Love it. As far as I am concerned you can't go wrong with it. My friends laugh at me. I hope they read your blog as I mention it all the time.

Plus, it wouldn't "feel" hot in the summer, but you'd feel warmth in the winter.<BR/><BR/>Glad to hear a few words from Dave.Nellie's Needleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12468773469685787840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9291442.post-25297219106232224442008-12-10T12:40:00.000-05:002008-12-10T12:40:00.000-05:00They say an east facing room should be painted a w...They say an east facing room should be painted a warm color and a west facing one a cool color.

I have found inspiration from your devotion to each other. It's never a bed of (red) roses all the time, but you both have worked together to achieve a very loving relationship. And yes, I too, miss Dave's blog.

The color always dries darker it seems. I like a warm cantaloupe color, a warm aqua or a warm green-just my vote and mind you, I have beige-y type walls. I dream in color though...LOL!
