Grays and Greens


Driving home - Cass County, Texas

Have you ever been to Northeast Texas in the spring? It's like rural England, almost. I wish you'd been in the car with me this morning, right before it rained, heading down the highway. Just over this hill, there's a pond and a field of wildflowers. Gorgeous.

I've decided I want to take a break from my usual color schemes and go with whites, grays, greens and antiqued golds for this house. The landscape today captured the colors perfectly. I feel my best on cloudy days in spring or fall, and I think I want that muted- yet hopeful- feeling in this new house.

We leave in 15 minutes to meet the home inspector at the house. I have the tape measure ready and am eager to see just how the little kitchen measures up. 

I'll report back, with pictures, very soon. Enjoy your Wednesday! -Brin

  5. Beautiful! I've never been to Texas, but I bet it's cloudy days are much more green and less grey than England's ;)

    That said, we have actual Spring and sunshine here lately, which is wonderful after what felt like such a long winter.

    Beautiful colour scheme. Can't wait to see pictures of the house and get to dreaming. Good luck with the inspector! xx
