You'd love the house I'm renting. The overhead beams in the living room
have been painted avocado-green - obviously to match the lemon-yellow walls.
The carpet is avocado/jungle-green flecks, and the stove in the (open)
kitchen is mustard-yellow - as are two of the walls, obviously to match the
other two which are a creamy-yellow, and the cupboards which (again) are
kind of a grey/avocado-green. The walls of the bathroom are lime-green, and
the deck has been painted army-green. Of course, in order to make the most
of this visual extravaganza, I've ensured that my lounge suite (not rented
but mine) is a deep crimson red. The fridge/freezer is boring old white
though......
Hell - absolutely dying for the day when she can own her own home, and paint
the walls/ceiling some colour that doesn't make every visitor say
"Ummmm......interesting colour scheme.......do you own this house?"
