Emily, dear Emily. I always knew you had taste and style and class but this is amazing. So amazing that I think I’m going to have to go buy paint in the next few days. As much as I miss living in Wicker Park, my beach house needs some life and you’ve given me inspiration to bring my beach house some Chicago roots! Merci, chère Emily! Et je manque de passer du temps avec vous au studio! xxx

Thanks Emily for taking the time to find and share your lovely mix of paint colors. I was so thrilled to see how you used the library piece! I just picked that very thing up awhile back at a thrift store-am now inspired to refinish it~tyou

Oh dear. I’m sorry it took me forever and a day to find those paint colors, I misplaced the chips and lost my fan wheel, and the numbers have faded from the cans. I finally spent the afternoon on behr/benjamin moore/RL home and tracked down the colors though!!
Dining Room/Office: Behr Minced Ginger
Living Room: RL Dovecoat
Bedroom: RL Olive Tree (we painted a single coat over the pale peachy color that was here when we moved in, and I think it gives it a particular glow…)
Kitchen: I got the left over paint from a set, but I’m pretty sure it’s RL Aged Mint.

Also, our rug is from ikea, I think someone asked.

Thanks again for all the kinds words everyone, and for your patience with the paint colors!
