White woodwork, here we come!

Somebody pinch me! Last night David said "yes" to my plea (once again) of painting our woodwork white. I'm so excited, I can hardly think of anything else. The one exception is that we can't touch our newish, gorgeous wood windows. We spent a pretty penny on those, so I don't blame him. And who knows...by the time we are done, he may change his mind.

I figure the transformation will take us all summer long. So now I'm on the hunt for the perfect white paint color to use. And I'm devising plans to replace the nasty carpet on our stairs with wood stairs. And figure out which rooms will also get the addition of board and batten treatments. Is it going overboard to want to add it to every single room? Probably. So I'm thinking the top choices are entry/stairs/hall, our room and the kitchen/dining room. We'll leave the living room and basement alone. For now. *insert evil laugh*

Here are the inspiration photos I've been gathering. I'm so excited!

Ahhh...the Nester. I love everything she does. *sigh*

Oh look! Here are the yellow walls and yellow curtains I've been dreaming about.

I may go this route for our room afterall.

This will make such a nice backdrop for our dining room.

Love the double rows here, so kids can reach the hooks too.

This is so happening in our entrance!

I just love the look of all white with color up above.

I'd love to add it up and down both sets of stairs too.

And a little shelf on top, where appropriate, will be nice.

Oh, and I think our bathroom needs it too. ;)
