Summer Inspiration: Paint A Patterned Floor

Having spent the weekend lounging around in the park, at the beach and by a pool, my mind is still outside. The wall to wall underfoot hardly registers as I tap tap tap away on the keyboard.

A good DIY for people who already have painted floors. To get a similar look make sure to start with a glossy white floor and then get creative with organic shapes in 5 shades of green. I'd love to see something like this on a small deck or a bright entryway.

And if you love the color palette of white, black and green check out the blog door sixteen for lots of the minimal but fun palette.
