I took a color swatch from Olde Century paints to my local Ace Hardware and they mixed it to the perfect color.I luv Olde Century paint colors.They are so colonial and new I couldn't go wrong with any of there colors.There gallons of paint are very very expensive though so just go to a place that can match it.Ace does a very good job and there paint is awesome and reasonable.Someone told me it's Sherwin Willaims paint but just not labeled that way.Good luck and I know anything you choose will look awesome.:0)SherriSherri/Here Goes My Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12207920573855105878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3544336603723972407.post-55180818465244699332009-08-16T09:38:08.921-07:002009-08-16T09:38:08.921-07:00We used Behr in Oyster for our base color in all o...We used Behr in Oyster for our base color in all of our rooms except the bedroom (that one's a light smokey blue with brown accents blue!) and it's LOVELY. It's a nice creamy color and we just love it! It brightens and warms at the same time and we only needed one coat after the primer on most of our surfaces, which is REALLY nice!!! I definitely suggest that! It's a nice neutral without being boring and it really warmed up our rooms!Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08940147776806781636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3544336603723972407.post-53871658851104941042009-08-15T17:26:14.053-07:002009-08-15T17:26:14.053-07:00Hi Carey!

My newest favorite color is Powell Buff from Bej Moore but if you can get a sample swatch from a Benj Moore retailer, Lowes will match it. My friend Kathy has it on her walls and I saw it in person and it looks like the walls are "candle lit" To see her rooms painted in it, go here:<br />http://good-times.webshots.com/album/569507101EwYtew She uses the same colors as you. It is warm and everything looks good on it, yet it isn't do yellow or too tan or too light. I am painting my dining room in it soon!<br /><br />Oh yes, the flags displayed! I love that too!<br /><br />hugs, LindaLinda - Behind My Red Doorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14440663909785788611noreply@blogger.com
