The living room is painted! I got things back in order, and the new paint is dry. Here are the “before” and “after” pictures:
So this seems to happen to me a lot. I choose a color I really like. I put samples on the wall. I live with it for a while. Then I paint the whole room. And the paint looks different. This paint is more blue than I was expecting. It even looks a little on the purple side. Ugh.
I do at least like that it’s lighter in the room now. But I think I might be re-painting. If I do, it’s going to be a while. I have school stuff to do now.
Ha! That first photo shows Bruno caught in the act!
That is quite the dramatic difference, and I think you’ll like that it’s lighter, even if it’s not quite your shade. I’m sure that Beth (as will I, a little) will mourn the loss of the warm neutral……but it’s your home. To each their own!
