Guest Room 101

Every guest room must be equipped with:

A bed.
A place to sit.
A place to put some stuff.
Books.

Our guest room was probably the least offensive original color. 


The cobalt blue wasn't too bad.  What was bad?  The amount of paint on that poor ceiling.  And, the thick, gloopiness of the paint.  It was so thick it was cracking and peeling off. 
It was the second room we painted, but this was the color that took the longest to grown on me.  After we were done, I wasn't sure about it.   

The color was called Key Lime.  It had more of an electric tone than I was prepared for, but after we added the bed and some accessories, it got much, much better.

Now, future guests will have a place to sleep.  Eventually, the bookcase will be refinished and stocked and a reading chair will be available.

But, Chez Riley is now open enough for business. 


Just try to withhold judgment on the bathroom...we'll be starting on the bathroom in January.
