Speaking of colors ~
I just finished painting our playroom addition. I was uncertain of the specific color that I was looking for, but wanted a warm, pink undertone. I bought 2 gallons of base pre-colored that were approximately what I wanted, plus they were 50% off. One was real nice, the other was too pink. Ray began to complain about the pinkness until I said, "If it's good enough for Sheriff Joe Arpaio (Ray's idol) - it's good enough for us. It has nothing to do with male/female - it's about feeling good". So he let it be. I accidentally matched the wrong base gallon, and chose Lady Pink. When I put it on the wall it made me think of Pepto, so I took it back to Lowe's and had them add a bit more color in the direction of Summer Tan, making it more peach/pink. I must admit I love it! It's so bright and cozy, it puts my other rooms to shame. In fact, I'm already planning new colors for our other rooms. I think I will eventually make the office brown, the kitchen dark red, my bedroom Caribbean Holiday (dark teal), and the master bathroom mint green. All in time. I do love color.
Ray built both additions, but I am proud to say I did the ceilings. A long time ago, when I was in high school, Jack asked my artistic opinion of the ceiling he was working on in Salt Lake. He used a broom as a brush to apply spackle in swirls. I said that I really liked it and may I try? No. Still, to this day, I remember that technique and practiced it on both of these new rooms. I got really good at it by the time I got to the end of the second room. Instead of trying to make full circles, I started overlapping them into a rainbow-type pattern.
