Rehab Madness.

As many of you know, Mikey and I are moving into an apartment at Marina City.  Marina City is definitely unique, as the buildings are round and affectionately referred to as "corncobs".  They've also been around forever - which is why Mikey and I are in the midst of a rehabbing tornado.  We've been swallowed by two layers of bad wallpaper and paint.  The place is a total disaster and we're exhausted, but the saving grace is that the unit no longer looks like it belonged to Mrs. Roper (you know, of "Three's Company" fame). It's looking, dare I say it, normal!  Modern!  

I must say that stripping wallpaper is gross - especially when there are not one, but TWO layers that have most likely been up for 30 some years.  My hands are a total disaster and I am in desperate need of a manicure, but we're excited that we can finally begin painting! 

We decided to focus on the main living area first, and I am pleased to present our wall color of choice - "Asparagus".  Our thought is to follow this same color scheme in terms of wall, trim and furniture, but also add pops of blues and purples in our pillows and accent pieces.

Thoughts?  Suggestions?  We'll continue to post more as decisions are made!
