[quote=Anonymous]I recommend painting swatches of each on as many walls as you can and then studying them at different times of days (esp early evening, when you are probably mostly likely to spend the most time in your kitchen, right?) That what I did at our new place. I choose my paints samples badly...was looking for a soft grey with a hint of lavender (kitchen is black and white...no $$ to redo so stuck with it, but not the horrid yellow walls!). I was amazed at how different paints can look from the swatch to in the can to on the wall and at different times of day. Finally found one that worked after much deliberation. I love the teal but agree it might be too dark. Had always heard that you should avoid green in kitchens (not sure why, I recall some association with how you look green when you're nauseated...not good around food). But I have a friend with sage green in her kitchen and it looks very nice. [/quote]
