Last year we bought a foreclosure house that had been empty. We had it completely remodeled & the whole house inside is painted a light cream color except for the big family room which has paneling. I like the cream color, it is warm, yet light. I have a daybed in my sewing room so it can be used as a spare bedroom. Would like a larger room but am glad to have a room at all. I can always use the kitchen table or one of the beds or the floor to lay out my quilts.
