First, if you want to do vinyl wallpaper and find an all-over pattern that you like, we\\u2019re with you. Suzanne would cover every bulkhead and do a small pattern. Also, use the resources that large paint companies such as Benjamin Moore provide. Their people can be super helpful and knowledgeable. Suzanne is drawn to the beauty of the blue cabinets in the kitchen and the yellow door. The third color she would add is red\\u2026but a deep rose or a red with pink undertones.\\nWe love some stripes too - more narrow lines give you a little more breathing room. You can bring in colors from other rooms.'
