When we first married, we lived in apartments, a rent house, then we bought our mobile home. We lived in our trailer for 3 or 4 years while we built our first dream home. That house had a lot of sweat equity. For colors, the toilet, tub, counter tops, sinks, kitchen appliances, Formica in kitchen, floor coverings, wall paper in bathroom were all HARVEST GOLD. I thought it was such a beautiful color. Our first appartment had been harvest gold & my sister's kitchen appliances were harvest gold. Carpet in master was gold, one bedroom was green, other and living were rust. We were so proud of our first home. In a couple of years, I realized what a mistake we had made. Harvest Gold had been in style for quite a while, and was going out . If we'd stayed in that house, we'd have had a lot of expensive things to replace. Now I know better. More permanent fixtures are neutral colors or stainless steel now. I so understand.

Your bedspread is just like the shower curtain that my daughter had her first year at college. She and her roommate painted their bathroom that bright turquoise color (matched the shower curtain perfectly) and had orange rugs and towels to match. When you got up in the morning you didn't stay drowsy too long after you got in the bathroom. It was a real eye opener!!!!!!! I still tease her about it.

Melissa, I did not post pics of your room because the pics were from the Parade of Homes tour, and your room was setup as a sitting room.

Love your dorm pics. So appropriate. Afterall, we are posting pics of our interior space. This is your special space right now. Love it!!!
