If these walls could talk

I have incredibly white, stark and boring high ceilings in my home. I've always wondered if painting my walls a darker color could tone down the "hey, I'm a big ass white wall" look down a bit. I snapped a few photos of my wall-dilemma- oh and sorry for the crappy cell phone pics.

 And more amazing grainy photos of my pad-- ha!

So, I ventured over to Houzz.com for a little high ceiling wall inspiration. Oh-- and yes ma'am that site had plenty of inspiration.
