It's not easy being green
I seem to be developing a habit. When I spruced up the kitchen, I decided to go with two colors instead of one, not counting the wallpaper wall. Since my bedroom has a chair rail border, I decided to do a light color above and a darker shade below. So the painting is completed and the window frames look a mess. Now what to do. Color choice fobia. My upstairs woodwork is already slate grey. I can't do the window frames in white as theya re everywhere else in the house. I've just added new green colors to the bedroom; I must do something with the window frames; I don't think that slate grey is the right choice for window frames. NO problem, I've discovered a new online tool: Behr.com. I can go there, enter my green wall colors and add the slate grey woodwork trim and see what they suggest as another coordinating color. My tastes are predictable: Musical Mist in the kitchen, Southern Breeze in the bedroom. So, what does Behr recommend to complement my bedroom palette? Silver Screen. Appropriate color for a Boomer, I think. I just keep wondering why with each small project accomplished in the bedroom, more keep popping up. I really had no intention of painting the window frames. But alas, I couldn't return the curtains until the window frames look fit to be covered. A fresh coat of paint is always an easy fix. Anyone for the next holiday week-end when I finish this project?!
