I love the show, though find it a little sad (such miserable marriages!). But on to more important matters. I am preoccupied with painting the walls in our house the same robin’s egg blue of the Drapers’ home.
I love this color. It is so bright and happy and just, lovely (though the same can certainly not be said for the Drapers’ relationship).
I do worry a tiny bit that it's a little trendy right now. Would I still love it in a year? In three? Honestly the chance of it actually getting painted this color is so slight that to actually worry about tiring of the color is laughable.
We paid a decent amount to have our house painted before we moved in a couple of years ago. I still like the colors but am just itching for a change: the living room is a warm light brown, the study an earthy green and the kitchen is warm, cranberry red. But that robin’s egg blue is just so happy, and in a funny way neutral enough that I think many colors would compliment it. I guess as we head into winter I think of needing this brightness. Also, I like the idea of changing things a bit interior wise (fall is, after all, my New Year).
Now if I can just figure out how to get the walls painted without doing it myself or paying someone to do it. Oh well, a girl can dream.

I have disc one, season one, of Mad Men from Netflix now, but I haven't started watching it yet.
And I think that robin's egg blue is lovely. I once saw a really pretty room with that color on the top half, and cream-colored beadboard panels on the bottom.
