Lately I've been noticing that our basement lacks decor. It's just all white walls and carpet, nothing to spruce it up to be home-like. Half the problem is that the outside walls of the basement are concrete so you can't hang anything with nails and such. I've also wanted to paint our kitchen yellow because I think kitchens should be sunny and full of light. Well we decided that painting the kitchen is probably too big a project, and it's already a orangey yellow color anyway. So I decided to just try to bring out the yellow in the paint. I started with a board with words on it with colors I liked. Then for Christmas my mom gave us a tablecloth which coincidentally were the same colors as the board I had made (it was totally accidental but worked out perfectly) (she got us a tablecloth to replace the one we had before that shrunk in the wash that I loved so much). To bring out more yellow I had some yellow decorations already on the shelves by the sink, but added some pictures of yellow stuff.
I also have made some decorations out of toilet paper/paper towel tubes. I have pictures of someone else's but will post a picture when mine are completed and hanging.
