You know, if you work with Aura colors, the initial PR on them was that they share a particular tone (iirc it's something about the kind of colorant, but someone like funcolors would know more about that) which coordinates them such that they'll all work with each other, supposedly. The game was to pick any three colors from the deck and you'd be able to make a look with them. That's why they were called "Affinity" colors. You might want to look for tones you like in that set of colors and know that they're 'scientifically' designed to be able to play well together. Hope this maybe helps you become less dazed and confused...

Patty cakes, Do you think that med. grey small lumbar pillows on the leather chairs would get 'lost'? I saw 2 on sale at JCP yesterday and almost got them but then thought that they might be too dark. IKEA has some nice charcoal throws but I really think that I'd like to try my hand at sewing a few. I get what you mean about not adding a 'color' to the rm. and I agree. I have checked out grey curtains but I have this weird fanatical thing about all of my curtains matching if they can be seen from another rm.! Will check out Parma's sexy rm! Jacy - That's exactly how RP looks w/ my white trim! I have a sickness you know. A paint sickness. I admit that I have a sample of PD. In my house it got a bit too purpley for me. There's an excellent episode of Find Your Style where they did a rm. in Hot Spring Stones (1 up from PD) and the accent wall PD. The accent colors were Silver Sage. It was beautiful! I saved that episode for a very longtime. There was also a woman who used to post here who did her bedroom exactly the way your thinking. Her sign on was Girlwithaspirin. Maybe you can do a google search and a pic will come up somewhere. Caroleoh - Yep - that's the rm. that was BT! It's such a small room that there are only so many angles that I can get pics of. I highly recommend BT!!!! Truly if I'd hadn't begun painting the rest of my downstairs such neutral but rich colors I would never have parted ways w/ BT but I just felt that it wasn't working w/ the whole overall concept that I was going w/ and that I really, really like alot. I can't wait to post finished pics of the downstairs. And I mean finished pics! 3 more pairs of curtains to buy (3 more to glue pom-poms on too), get DH to hang the DR chandelier - and maybe, just maybe, if my decorating piggy bank has enough money - get my big black and white print for the hallway.

I have BM Camouflage in my bedroom and I love it. Please understand that it is my first real venture away from creamy white, so it felt like a really bold move for me. It is very chameleon-ish, depending on the light and time of day. Sometimes I see a bit of blue in it. It reminds me of eucalyptus in the fog. That being said, it doesn't photograph very well. It reads more green to me than these photos indicate. Guess it depends on your point of view: if you are used to color on the walls, it might look a bit tan, but to me, I see green. Usual disclaimer, please disregard unstaged bedroom:

That changes my suggestion, yes…. Thinking you have a lot of the same (I have Revere Pewter on my walls and ! I have your floor tile in a bathroom). What I have found to be the perfect accent color to all the taupes and whites is black…I bought two new spool chairs in black…I added two end tables in an Annie Chalk black paint on either side of my white English arm sofa, with white lamps, and have a wall collage of antique botanical ferns that I reframed in black. But, not any black…B.M Midnight 2131-40. That is what I would paint the vanity. As for hardware, in a bathroom, I like chrome finish…bright and clean, but that is your choice. Otherwise, brushed stainless is my choice. One word of warning, sometimes brushed nickel can look pink, or sometimes a grungy yellow tone. Not my favorite.
