Remember how I said I don't like blue, well, I must have been having a weak moment and forgot myself.
BECAUSE
I bought two new blues.
I don't know what I was thinking.
This blue was TOO green.
This blue was TOO blue.
Mix them together and.........
The third blue was JUST RIGHT!
I hope.
I like how the chair looks, even before distressing and waxing.
The new color goes great with the fabric I was using as my inspiration.
I like it, but just in case I have some WHITE PAINT waiting on the counter if the blue doesn't grow on me.
So what do you think, will I keep it or will it be white next week?
I guess we will just have to wait and see.
The green/blue paint is an oops from Home Depot and the light blue is Louis Blue chalk paint.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!
I am joining Miss Mustard Seed Furniture Feature Friday for a chalk paint party.
I love the chair and the paint you mixed. It goes perfectly with the fabric. Don't paint it white. I can't believe I just said that giving most of my furniture is white. Blue is growing on me too. I painted my first piece a light blue gray.
ReplyDeleteLive with it a few weeks (weeks, not days) and maybe it will grow on you. I love it right this minute. The fabric on the seat is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThere is no way you will keep that blue for long. I know from experience. LOL
ReplyDeleteI think the blue on the chair is just perfect with the fabric. I love mixing my own paint colors, it's always a surprise!! ;-D

ReplyDeleteI thought you were taking that fabric back? AND of course I love the paint colour!
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful blue that goes perfect with the fabric!
ReplyDeleteI love it! But, I'm like you, I would probably like it for a little while then be tempted to paint it white.
ReplyDeleteI can't leave anything alone!! LOL!
