You guys know me by now.
I like color.
I like ALL colors.
Sure I gravitate to some colors more than others, but every color has it's place in my heart.
And that's why I believe
Decorating with Green is not just for Leprechauns!

When I remodeled Casa de Loco several years ago I used a beloved piece of art, that I inherited, as my jumping off point. I pulled the colors from this piece and weaved them throughout the house.
The fact that the Casa is mid century modern architecture and that this art screams Loco, well let's just say it set the tone.
The chair was my grandparent's and still has it's gorgeous original upholstery.
In the living room, I worked the entire room around the green velvet bench that once sat at the foot of my grandparent's bed. I pulled the other colors from the art piece in the foyer and splashed them around the room as well.
Told you, it's a little crazy!
Yes, my sofa is graffittied.
The BHE had the purchased the art piece from an outdoor art festival long before I knew him. It fit in perfectly.
You can read about the Casa de Loco Christmas tour here, here and here. You know because, it's March and, you want to read about Christmas.
A custom made rug from solid green carpet was made for the den. I also found a fabulous lamp with a green marbled shade.
Now here's where it gets crazy.
On the other side of the dresser is Rider Girl's room.
Wowzer, right? I don't call this place Casa de Loco for nothing!!
