We've always had "vanilla" walls.  Neutral paint, no wallpaper, ordinary.  While many of our walls will still be neutral, the girls come from a land of intense and vivid colors - amazing hues stretching across the color spectrum.

Our task of selecting the right color for their room started in the Home Depot paint department.  Staring up at the wall of color squares, trying to determine what might be a good fit, feeling uncertain. 

After several minutes of pondering, a color caught my eye..."I really like this one...not sure if it will be too bright, but it's beautiful."  Pulling the paint swatch from the wall, we looked curiously for the name - Haitian Flower.  No pondering needed.

One wall, highlighting the beautiful furniture from a friend.  The rest of the walls are vanilla.   :-)
