You said that you want warm...how about a deep red or a nice taupe.

Girl where have you been? I havent seen you on. I like buttery yellow with that color. I love that bed!

I work at Lowe's in the paint dept and we just got a cd in that you can buy for about $6.00 (it's marked $9.98 but we sell it for 6.00). It's a virtual painter program. You can play around with colors or download pictures of your own rooms and try out different color schemes before you buy them. It might be worth a try if you are near a Lowe's. Good luck.

That is an amazing idea, I am going to Lowes this weekend to purchase some supplies for my bathroom remodel project. Will definetely look for this Cd, paint dept. right?

Yep! We keep ours right on the front counter. I just played around with mine and it is alot of fun. If you are as indecisive as I am then something like this should be a big help. We also have 1/2 pint cans that can be mixed to whatever color you want so you can try a small area first. They are $2.99 each. Some people will take 3 or 4 of similar colors before making a final decision. Paint never looks the same on your walls as it does on a paint chip in a well lit store. If you want, you can also take a bunch of one color and tape them on your wall in a group to give you a better idea. One chip is just too small. Good luck!

Oh, I love your bed - I have always wanted a great big sleigh bed.
