Desert camel

After spending the previous weekend traveling up-and-down the mid-Atlantic coast, Roger and I spent this weekend at home, occupying ourselves with some domestic projects.

Our primary task was to paint the mudroom. The previous owner had hurriedly painted the yellow room white, but there were still unfinished edges and dog scratches on the door.

Although we contemplated greens and yellows for the room, we settled on the warm coffee-colored Behr Desert Camel. It actually works really well with the white trim and the mudroom tiles.

The painting went fairly quickly, and with great results. The new color makes the little room look more important, grown-up and a sweet entrance to our home.
