It's Always Sunny in the Guest Room

At first glance, it might seem like we're trying to blind our guests when they walk into the room and are greeted by a bright and sunny yellow accent wall.  What can I say?  All this power of picking out whatever colors we want/like has created a of couple color crazed fools.
The yellow wall (Olympic Icon in Del Sol) even scared us at first but we're digging it now that the rest of the room is softened by a light lavender (Valspar Signature in Lavender Heather. Beware, Valspar's Signature paints offer great color choices but they are "low" VOC and "low" apparently means the room will stink for a month.  I wouldn't use this line of paint in a room you can't close off and leave a window open).
Hopefully our guests warm up to the space and don't go blind first.  It's still better than what my sister said we should do:  Pink glitter zebra print.

We have a small dresser tucked into the closet (where I took down the bi-fold doors) so it doesn't take up floor space.
(Bye bi-folds)

 (Notice that last time my mom visited she left us with a bin of "her things."  She's like a crazy girlfriend who is slowly trying to move in.)

We'll get some new curtains, art on the walls, and have it all cozy for company.  Don't forget your sunglasses!
