March 30th, 2008
From Janet and Julie:
Orange is everywhere these days; we especially like it as a default option for children’s bedrooms (it’s a great alternative to the usual blue or pink).

There is nothing more refreshing than clean white with beautiful punches of bright colors!

You really can’t go wrong with orange! It’s such a warm and creative color. Here’s an orange stairwell that I bookmarked awhile that you might like. http://www.dominomag.com/daily/blogs/renovator/2007/09/stairway-to-hea.html
