one room done...what next?

I finally finished my living room...yeah! It's a good feeling to have that done. The picture on the far left is the living room before ( I made the curtains in a green ticking stripe and the walls were also green.) Now here it is in a blue/green...I made the curtain panels and they are a brown tweed. (close up picture down below...) Now it is on to the bedroom!

Nice job; I am loving that color. Very warm with the brown drapes. Feel free to come do my living room anytime; I am ready for a change.

Your curtains are fabulous! Do you mind sharing the paint color you used? I've never been a blue person but I painted my study a fairly dark green/blue and your blue reminds me of it. LOVE IT!
