How Much Purple is "Too Much"?! by Weezilou

How Much Purple is "Too Much"?!

This morning I commented on a purple door that was posted and found out that today is "purple day" on "Jul14words"... We've no shortage of purple around here! I fell in love with this "Purple House" and continue to maintain that outside color. Personally, I might not have taken the interior this far, but to strip all the paint would be quite expensive, so we just go with it...and it's grown on me... I recall scuttlebutt around town that people were saying "everything" inside was purple... Well...almost...!
I like the floor

I like this POV and yes, I like purple too

I love purple. Do you know the poem 'When I am old I will wear purple'?

@ceilidh uh...yes... http://365project.org/Weezilou/365/2010-06-25
Over the winter, while we were away, we had several rooms painted, and it wasn't until I looked at this older picture, I realized we'd changed the wall colour! I don't actually remember asking that the stairway and hall be painted purple, but, well...why not? "Eccentric" and all that!

I love those floorboards and the bannister. Nice composition.

Yeah, I don't know that I would change a lot either. The house looks very comfortable the way it is, and I would say it has a lot of charm

i doubt you would ever get all the purple out unless it was sanded so deeply it lost all it's character.

I ask Ina and we both agree, no purple floor for us. Nevertheless it fits nice in this house. A great capture

@pyrrhula You can believe me when I say I would NEVER have painted a nice wood floor in an old home! When we had the (purple) paint removed in the kitchen and downstairs bath, there were layers of black, green and (horrors...worst of all!) a dense salmon-coral-pink! WHAT were all those people thinking?!

@Weezilou Beautiful ?
July 18th, 2014  
@pyrrhula haha! That's a good one!
July 18th, 2014  
Haha great capture!

I really like your composition on this one, Louise.... being able to look down the hall into the room, the stairway leading the eye downwards.....

@aglennc Thanks, Anita...but I have to chuckle...there aren't a lot of ways to photograph this, so I went with the obvious... I'm glad the purple came up absolutely true to the hue!

Love purple....great POV! Is that your house in Lunenberg?
July 18th, 2014  
@panthora Yes, this is the Lunenburg house... it's a pretty special gathering spot for the family now after 12 years...
July 18th, 2014  
I love it! What could possibly be better than purple floorboards? A purple ceiling, maybe? Lovely glimpse into your home, Louise.

Wonderful. I love purple.
