A Perfect Color Match

I've recently started to tackle my ever long list of home projects.  I finally completed the last item (well, maybe second to last!) on my 'to do' kitchen list.  As you know, I had a new roman shade made for my kitchen window (here) and so I wanted to incorporate the same citrine color elsewhere in my kitchen.  Tomorrow I will do the reveal, but to give you a hint, it involved a piece of furniture found at an antique store and a little of this paint color.


The paint color is Benjamin Moore's Mother Earth and it is the perfect color match to the citrine in Schumacher's Imperial Trellis.  I'm so excited because, the piece of furniture I (my husband) painted turned out great!  Stay tuned for tomorrow's reveal.....

    I can't wait to see it!!!! I LOVE your kitchen roman shade by the way! I don't think I'll ever get tired of that trellis print in the citrine color.

    Glad you found just the right shade, it's not always easy coordinating paint. Looking forward to your reveal.

    Love your blog! Is there any way to order this Imperial Trellis fabric, or do you have to "apply" like it says on their site? It's gorgeous! And I'd love to have Melissa on etsy make them.

    Hi Anna:

    A while back LGN was selling fabric and I got two yards of the imperial trellis fabric from her fabric sale. I don't know if she is selling fabric still or not?? You would have to contact her. Otherwise, you can purchase it here: http://www.insidefabric.com/p-687868-imperial-trellis-citrineivory-by-f-schumacher.aspx

    Good Luck!!

    Oh my goodness!!! This just saved me because I am waiting for the fabric and it is taking about a week longer than I thought it would. I need paint to match! Thank you and I am so happy to have found you!
