There's a website called
Favorite Paint Colors and I am in love with it. It's perfect for someone like me who can not visualize what a room is going to look like when starring at that tiny little paint swatch. So, when I saw
this front door, I knew I'd found the perfect color for my own front door. Or, so I thought. I was a little confused when I got to the store and saw the swatch up close and personal. That door doesn't look anything like that paint swatch. I was confused. And, as per usual, my phone would not connect to the Internet so I could pull up the picture for reference. Note to self, I learned this from my cousin Amy. Take a picture of the web page on your phone, like a screen shot. Comment if you need directions on how to do this. I learned it from my kids.
What can I say, they are talented.
Now, here's something you probably don't know about me. I should never be allowed into a paint store without a chaperon. And, no, JT doesn't qualify as a chaperon. See that picture on the left? That's what happens when I am left alone to my own devices in the paint store. It's pretty amazing how my mental picture was so way off the actual color of that inspiration door! The good news is that I don't totally dislike my new Cruising blue front door. In fact, I am hoping that it looks really good with the new wreath Amy has made for me! Fingers crossed, really tight!
