Enclosed Porch Makeover: Help me choose colors! Daring to be bold.

It is time to get some color in this place! The trim will be up soon(ish) and then it is all about the décor! Best part right? Well, I didn’t tell you about the full details about when I was choosing the stencil. I originally wanted to go with a trellis. Long story short, that didn’t happen. I wasn’t sure what to do. I showed Dave the stencil options and he instantly told me to go with the houndstooth. He told me that I wouldn’t be happy with it unless I took a risk. SO true!

Totally worth it right? Well, next item of business was choosing a color scheme to add some brightness! I had been thinking of some colors and one that I wanted for sure was a bright, aqua blue. Other than that, I was lost. I told Dave this and do you know what came out of his mouth?

Yellow, Orange, and Blue!

For real? My first thought was, orange?! I don’t know if I can do orange. I can do yellow and blue. No problem, but orange?! Then I remembered what Dave said about taking risks. I need to jump in the deep in and take a risk! I have been wanting Dave to be able to feel more involved in decorating our house, so what a better way to let him be involved than by having him choose the colors? I did some research and this is what I have come up with so far. P.S. I LOVE the Chip it button! If you don’t have it, use it! I am obsessed!

Thoughts? Tell me what colors you like in these samples. I would love to hear your suggestions for blues, yellows, and especially oranges! What is your vote? Do you think I am crazy?
