Don't like. Like. Yeah, I did what you did with a couple of colours. Hadn't quite nailed them when Keith asked for them, so eyeballed the chips in the store, and just bit the bullet. (Granted, I had an idea of what I wanted and had collected a few chips that were close but not quite right.), but it's amazing how well that can work out sometimes. I once agonized over greys for months, painting strips on on the walls, etc, and finally had to choose, so picked one based on a chip in the store, and it was absolutely perfect: called Airstream, but I can't now find it (tough one to google). Greys are hard because because, like white, there's always some kind of undertone. Here's a good page with lots of greys.http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/2901301/list/50-Shades-of-GrayAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03729511564182475017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1068344708990429658.post-10914712582416165302013-03-17T07:02:03.617-07:002013-03-17T07:02:03.617-07:00I love everything!

I agonized over a grey colour, eventually wound up just grabbing one off the shelf and going with it. Unfortunately it's more mauve than grey. Oh well, too late now. I love the carpet too. Back when you posted about the carpets you wanted and that they were very expensive I was blown away cuz I had been surfing around internet looking at almost identical carpets just the day before. Us sisters have almost identical tastes. It must be those years of browsing through the Sears catalogues. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
