Get your judging pants on. Our house painter put up some swatches yesterday..
Scene 1:

| Pewter Green, Saucy Gold door, Ivoire trim |
I think it reads a little grayer on the swatch. For the record I hate the trim color. This is the painter’s favorite.

This last one definitely reads kind of purple. It’s very pretty (I think it’s my favorite) but I worry we’ll be “that purple house.” And of course, all the this is conjecture because everyone’s monitor will render the colors differently. But tell me what you think anyway. Or if you know where I live come by and look underneath the kitchen window. But not IN it! I hate it when you do that, it’s so creepy.
I’m hoping the sun will come out soon so we can see how it looks under something other than clouds. And we have the samples here so I’ll paint bigger swatches once Greg and I actually talk to each other (we’re like ships in the night this week) and see if he hates all of them. It’s possible.
