Question about tumbled marble back splash and paint color ?
Comments (5)Hi live wire oak, the back splash is gray and white but my lighting in the kitchen makes everythng look more warm or yellow tone for some reason (fluorescent). I really don't like an orangeish tone at all, the laminate counter has no orange in it but beige, black and gray. here's another photo of the back splash and counter....See MoreFuncolors-- Question about color matching one paint brand to anot
Comments (2)Can depend on the color. Valspar premium is very nice paint. Recently used it to repaint kid #2's room. Got a wild hair late Friday night, went and bought paint so I could paint Saturday morning. I would get my LA color in Valspar premium just to keep it simple. But if you want to use Aura, which I understand, then BenM should be able to do match. As we all know, crossing brands with color is always a risk so it's a matter of making your best guess about the right channel to choose to get your color....See MoreLoribee, question about one of your paint colors
Comments (3)THANK you... I was just reading the thread about choosing color vs bold and I was the only one who said play it safe and go neutral. Thought there was something wrong with me...or maybe my age is showing, lol. Thanks :)...See MoreWhere to ask questions about designing a home office?
Comments (2)Look at Diamond or Kraftmaid for the distressed black. But you'll pay a pretty penny for distressed black from anyone. For an office area, I'd recommend a wood over a painted surface. It wears better. If you want dark cabinets, look at doing an oak in something like a peppercorn stain. Oak is a standard charge wood and you'll save a LOT of money going that route. For the counter, look at doing a Corian. It's a great warm surface to work on as long as no one uses a utlity knife to score paper on it. (Yes, I had an intern do that.) Or look at laminate. There are some really beautiful laminate colors out there right now....See MoreOakley
