I really want to paint my dining room - it's the most depressing two shades of olive green from the previous home owner. My husband has vetoed all color choices. Last night when I was showing him colors, he said "How about two shades of olive green?" I knew we would struggle a bit before I married him - I love really bright colors and he likes more subdued colors... but the whole house is neutral colors and I can't do it. I need some personality added to the house! I feel like I'm living in someone else's house. I hate it.
Surely some compromise is possible - perhaps involving the rooms you spend more time in than he does? Or painting one accent wall? I feel for you!
Our house was originally painted the fashionable "neutral" gray. UGH! Looked and felt like a prison - it had to go!
