It does always pay to test your paints , really , I was toying with the blue and the tanish colour.

I tried a paler shade of blue and carbonite which was the cast off paint from the family room makeover , when I put it up at first I though all wrong , nope going with the blue , so I let the samples dry ,and started to appreciate the greige colour more , and went ahead with it and there you have it , a subtle added effect of stripes. <span style="font-size:180%;"><em>happy me!</em></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div>
