Last weekend, I spent a little bit of time contemplating my next project. I think I have finally decided it will be the kitchen… I am getting the itch to paint again and my cream, over-sized, sterile kitchen is starting to get the best of me. The rental kitchen is large and very open. It [...]

Total bam! I love it when it’s done well. I’ve used it for cakes I’ve made. It gives a soft femine touch to things. Love it!

bam! i still love it!
SLAM. Definitely not my favorite. i’ve seen it done well a couple of times, but just not something that really does it for me. Though its not something that I hate either.

Martha Stewart has some blue ombré stair rails that I suggested to my husband for our own staircase, and he said don’t you dare! He’s okay with any trend as long as it isn’t on a permenant surface.

BAM – but I think it’s uber trendy right now so for me it has to be on an easily-changed piece / pieces

I’m in the minority this time. It’s a slam for me. It’s ok on a very small piece, but a little too trendy for my style.

I like ombre. My hair is ombre. Ha! But… it can be ugly if not done well.
Slam, too trendy for me! The cakes and balloon look is fun, though!
