2011 SLC Parade of Homes – Paint Info

I’m dying to paint my kids bathroom a new blue color. I think I’m going to the Misty Morn blue paint that was in the master bedroom of the Parade Home I just finished. I thought I would share the paint info for all of the paint colors I used in the home. I’ve added links so you can see them in the actual rooms; its always hard to tell what the color actually looks like from a paint swatch.

Master Bedroom

Master Bathroom

Main/Kids Bathroom, Half Bath, and accent wall in Laundry Room



This color is on all of the other walls in the home. The sample looks REALLY dark. It’s not so don’t be afraid ;)

Now go paint something ;)

2011 SLC Parade of Homes – Master Bed and Bath

The master bedroom has the most beautiful paint color. It’s easily my favorite wall color in the house! Master bedrooms should be a place of escape; your private destination if you will. You should feel relaxed and comfortable in you bedroom. That was the exact feel I was aiming for when decorating this room. I originally wanted to go for a “resort/beachy” design; it ended up being a classier version.

The bedroom has a cathedral ceiling. It is to pretty to simply paint so I added trim where each wall met with another. It’s very simple but elegant and that seems to be how the whole room turned out!

The second I choose that blue paint color for the room I knew I wanted to add some gold/yellow accents. You can hardly see them in the picture but the leafs on the throw have a rich gold through them. The throw became my base for the bedding and the rest of the room decor; it pulled everything together.

This bathroom vanity has an open bottom and a  HUGE black pipe that dropped 3/4 the way below the sink. It desperately needed to be hidden. I found this over-sized shallow basket at Hobby Lobby and filled it with towels and some of my antique finds! It’s  the perfect fix.

The bathroom has an AMAZING walk in shower. The natural light from the windows and the slight coloring in the tile is perfect for a relaxing hot shower!


The master bed and bath wouldn’t be complete without an over sized walk in closet. The center island is perfect for folding/putting away clothes and provides extra storage.

The master bedroom is easily my favorite room in the house. I love the relaxing open space and colors. The bathroom is very spacious and clean. There is one BIG piece to this room that is missing. We had a hard time finding the right thing so we haven’t put it in yet. As soon as its installed and picture worthy I will update! It definitely completes the room.

I’ll show you the main area’s of the house tomorrow; the Living Room and Kitchen!

Airplane Bedroom Decor

My oldest son will be turning 4 in a few months. I’ve always felt like there was something missing in his room. It just needed something to tie it all together. A little Pottery Barn wall art gave me the inspiration I needed (the picture isn’t posted on their site anymore or I would list it). I used two boards, some craft paint, and a good friend’s sketching abilities to create the plane above his bed. He loves it!  His space is finally starting to feel more like a “big boy room”. I bought red curtain panels and added a light blue strip to the middles. Finally, my vision is coming together. I have plans to add a few more vintage themed things to his room.


The clock on this shelf will receive a makeover soon. It needs a little vintage touch.

He LOVES his new big boy room and comments on his airplane that “mommy made for me” every night :) I love that boy!
