I found a paint that fit that look and description, painted a cute little table and when it dried, it look gray-yellow. Awful! I know I don't want any blue and now I don't think I want any beige since it might go yellow or pink, so I'm thinking gray with a bit of white and a bit of khaki. What would that look like?Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149588322029389324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448019025261796302.post-15744113415092944122013-08-11T22:32:56.788-05:002013-08-11T22:32:56.788-05:00Those are some great inspiration photos!
