all about color

ok, this is actually the 3rd combination i have tried. this is str sherbert and watermelon tourmaline. although the sherbert sucessfully negates the peach that i don't like, it is a little too neon. i wouldn't wear this. so onto the next color combo. i actually kind of enjoy this process.

if you look at the flickr group i linked to yesterday, the watermelon tourmaline and farmhouse color combo is my favorite. but if i am looking at it right, there are 3 versions shown and they all look really different to me. and wouldn't you know that i sold my skein of farmhouse on ebay awhile back? oh well, i know i got something that will work. and if comes down to it, i have tons of koigu that i can start swatching as well! :)


and someone really likes my snugs. i had to take them away because she was going crazy! notice how the lining is almost the same colors as my wall? yeah so i have color issues. i am very specific about what i like.

the fireplace guy came today to measure for glass doors. i am so excited about that. i haven't posted on here about this (i think) but i am re-doing my fireplace. new mantel, tile and glass doors. right now the pics are boring and i have to wait 4-6 weeks for the custom glass doors, but i'll do a progress report soon. i was so proud of myself for tearing out all the stone that was mortared on myself! it is going to look fab! or at least it does in my mind.
