So Blue
I'm back.. no I'm doing ok. Thanks to those of you who were wondering where I am. Things are fine, just not much to post about these days. I promise to get back on things.
I did paint my office the other day. It was "builder white", as it had not been painted in the seven years since my home was built. Lots of my house is that color, but some of it is painted very nicely. I'm not much of a painter, but I'm also not much for white walls either.
I do like the color blue. Not sure what that says about me, but I'll throw it out there. I have a inordinate about of blue clothing and I've had two blue cars in my lifetime. Given a preference, I gravitate towards blue.
But what blue for my office? Why Ford Blue Oval Blue, thank you. It's not easy to come by, I had to do a close match as much as possible. For those of you who know colors the RGB of Blue Oval Blue is 0/75/140 and Pantone 294C if you want to recreate it yourself. I did my best and much patience to my friend Toby while I kept running out to the parking lot of Lowes to find a Ford car to match as color sample too. I'm pretty close.
Now it's time to paint the kitchen...
