embroidered paint chips :: lisa solomon
..................
oh the infinite possibility that lies in a paint chip!
a chance for domestic change & newness & in a pretty little swath of colour.
i'm obsessed with paint chips these days. we've repainted the guest room here {stay tuned for fun DIY before and afters soon!} , and up next is my mom's bedroom for a little colourful pick-me-up!
so it's paint-chips-taped-to-walls-in-every-room!

i saw avril loreti's gorgeous new paint chip placemats earlier this week (yet another brilliant fabric design by that superstar!) and thought a round-up of paint chip art & projects was inspiringly in order!
why not live with beautiful paint chips everyday!?
have a paint colour you're lovin' lately?
i'd love to hear.

WOW! Who knew you could do all of that with paint chips. I wonder if home improvement stores are experiencing a bunch of women running in and getting a bunch of the free samples? LOL!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I may be making a trip to the paint store this weekend!

Thanks for sharing all of these kristal! I can't help collecting paint chips every time I go past the paint department. I have a drawer full and I figured someday I'd use them for something! :)
