And my brain...it gets weird on me.
Jul. 4th, 2010 09:55 amSo, I'd been thinking about repainting the master bath. I was thinking...silvery grey walls, with black cabinets and chrome/silver accents.
Evidently, what I *really* want is purple-blue or blue-purple, with bright white. Or a mushroom-y grey brown, but I think that's loosing ground steadily.
*headdesk*
This first color is called Magic Spell, by Behr. For some reason, it's coming across horribly grey, and it's not...it's very very vibrant.
This is another purply-blue, called Merlin by Valspar. This is a little closer to the true color palette, but wow, it's just not as deep. Of course, this is computer monitor, so I guess I should hush.
The final color I swatched is called Creek Bend, by Bahr. I was hoping it was more grey and less mud, but...not so much. If you look at it on the screen, it looks EXACTLY like the color on the walls already, but...not so much. On the wall, it's MUCH more grey-brown, like, well...creek mud.
Here's a shot of them swatched on the wall. From left to right, it's Magic Spell, Creek Bend and then Merlin. This first wall gets a lot of natural light from the large window just to the right of the tub. The second wall is in the small commode room and gets a lot less light.
