Studio colors!
I haven't finished cleaning out the studio space, but to keep myself motivated, I have bought some paint colors to try on the wall. I know that I want a pear color. I have chosen three different paints to sample. One is more green, one is more gold, and one is in the middle of the two. I think the middle one (the largest sample) is my favorite. I have mostly magnolia walls in my house, so I decided to splash out with some color in the studio! I think the "Altogether Charming Wools" (yarn man) print will sit well on this color. It is bright and cheerful, without being an obvious choice. I can't wait to see the entire space painted. I have to remember to take some "before" photos before it is too late! Next, I get to decide on the flooring. I am going to try to finish the cleanout this weekend. Woodworking dirt requires a lot of cleaning... I am keeping my eye on the big prize though!
I like the middle one, although I hope it is a bit lighter than it appears in the picture. Despite the fact that I am a color junky; no white walls in my house. But I'd worry about the reflected green light causing problems when working with fiber/fabric colors.
ReplyDeleteThe colors aren't very accurate in the photo, unfortunately, I am going to observe them in a variety of light settings before I decide. They are all a little more green then they appear in the photo. You raise a good point about the color, I will take that into consideration. Thank you for visiting my blog, it is good to see you here!
ReplyDeleteI like the big one too! I'm sure it will look great in whatever color. How exciting.
