Why is this sooooo hard? For someone who works with color, you would think I could make some color decisions for my house. It is time to replace the carpet and sofa. I am not tired of the color of either the carpet or sofa, but wear is evident. But replacing carpet requires at least thinking about the sofa color and the paint for the walls. So, around and around I go. Originally, I wanted a purple sofa, but then I got the Happy Chair. That means rethinking everything—again. Back and forth, back and forth. Grrrrr….!
I also like the color of the piece below. 
Even though, it’s a buffet, I thought I could use it for the TV and all the stuff that goes with it. And if worst comes to worst, I could always use it in the dining room as the buffet that it is.
The picture at the top is of all the paint samples I painted. They certainly don’t look anything like the samples below which came directly from the Benjamin Moore website. Directly above is a clip from ColorSchemer. In this Color Schemer harmony, the dark rust is the dominant color from which the others are considered to “go with.” All is just food for thought. And this clip is just a few of the choices!
