About the robins egg blue, if you do that go waaaay lighter than you want because it will turn out darker. I painted my bathroom a light robins egg blue and then repainted it less than 24 hours later because it gave me a headache.
House Beautiful usually has color swatches and names in there, which are fun to look at for color ideas.
Lighting plays a big part in how color will look on walls too, that's why I paint a swatch directly on the wall. It's worth the trouble to get a color you'll love. |
House Beautiful...I will look into that. THANKS!
I always forget about getting the smaller cans for samples...
Thanks so much for your input!
