Mind the Map

Did you know that prisons don’t use the color blue on their walls because it makes the inmates aggressive and violent? You probably didn’t know that, because I just made it up, although I’m pretty sure I heard it somewhere.  Maybe they DO use the color blue because it DOESN’T make the inmates aggressive and violent. Something like that.

But I would still feel a little stabby in this room. Maybe it’s that particular shade of blue with the knotty wood (shudder), but something about it makes me itch.

Luckily Naomi and Sage at Plaster & Disaster calmed the situation down and around into a guest oasis with plenty of white walls and a few accents of orange and green.

And a huge accent in the shape of a world map!

Fun for a guest room; your guests could stick a little thumbtack on the place that they’re from. Which is actually not fun because I don’t want my guests stabbing holes in my walls, and also I don’t host a lot of faraway guests.  It would probably just be one lone thumbtack from my mom. So yeah, nevermind on that whole idea.

    Thanks so much for sharing this project, Lindsey!!! The room is now occupied by my sister-in-law (for the next few months), and I feel so much better about putting her in there with the way it’s looking now!

    I love how the wood floor gives a wonderful (and much needed) contrast to the white walls/ceiling. The floor practically disappeared in the ‘before’. The room looks much bigger, more relaxing and beautiful!

    I am laughing at your commentary. I wouldn’t want holes in my wall either.

    Well THAT must explain my violent and aggressive self – blue is my favorite color. I’m like PAINT ALL THE THINGS BLUE. Okay well, I’ll be honest. I love the after much better. 🙂 It’s downright GORGEOUS. And makes me want to hug someone, not feel “stabby”. Stabby, Lindsey?? 🙂
