This wall in Gaby’s home needed a little sha-jazz (do you think if I use it twice in one day it will become a real word?)
She knew just how to do it too. Two words: Accent Wall.
She knew she wanted bold and bright, so she painstakingly measured and taped, broke out a can of Really Russet by Olympic Paint and gave a shot of much-needed personality to her home.
Check it out on her blog After the Before, but Before the After. Got all that?

@ Barbara – Watching TV against this wall was one of our concerns, but surprisingly you don’t even notice it. We’ve had friends and family over numerous times and no one has complained about difficulty watching TV against the wall. The pattern is large enough so that it doesn’t hurt your eyes.
