We must be on the same wave length except mine are the kitchen cabinets around 34 of them (or doors as I counted the knobs), and I have paint samples taped to the cabinets! That is a bummer about your computer, and hopefully they will be able to retrieve the photos. They can work wonders these days!

Blue is one of my favorite colors and I too have been trying to find the perfect blue fabric to use in my dining room at the new house. It is so hard when you don't have walls and your own items around you though to pick stuff.

My old cottage had so much paint on the walls I'm surprised it was able to take any more. Dare I ask, have you discovered Pinterest yet? So many ideas on there but so little time! I do hope your photos are retrievable, I am sure they will be and then you can breathe a sigh of relief. sweetbriardreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03036932595395191529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-79955872948287522502014-01-26T00:03:25.386-05:002014-01-26T00:03:25.386-05:00Selecting paint colours can be overwhelming.

I'm looking for a new paint colour for our living room and it's tough. I want to make a decision I'll be happy with for a long time. Love the shades of blue you're considering.

More and more we are relying on others. Good luck on finding the right color.

The kitchen will most likely stay the same colors, but<br />the bedroom is going to change. I can never tell from those little swatch cards and we<br />usually end up buying a small can to put on the wall just to see if it will work. Many times<br />it has paid off, as we didn't like it once it was on the wall. So the ruminating and testing is<br />always a good thing. Have fun ruminating, dreaming, and finally having it put on your wall with delight.Marilyn Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13115440271615593122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-55581391815084022612014-01-25T10:54:33.030-05:002014-01-25T10:54:33.030-05:00It is scary choosing the right shade of paint.

I always get sample jars of paint and paint on the wall, instead of relying on the small paint chips.<br /><br />Hope you are able to recover your photos.<br />Love,<br />PennyPenny from Enjoying The Simple Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01480355122441712250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-89357416409985967182014-01-25T10:05:19.102-05:002014-01-25T10:05:19.102-05:00Oh dear!

But here you are and I am so glad. It's not easy to pick the right blue and then there is the job of getting the paint up on the wall. I haven't touched a paintbrush in years. It was all too much to paint an entire and new house. <br />The more I listen to why you lost some of your photographs the more I am convinced that they are retrievable. Good luck. Gina.

And I agree wholeheartedly that there comes a time that it is much better to hire the work to be done. Painters usually give nice discounts this time of year, so don't wait too long in making your color selection!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05347598432040432610noreply@blogger.com
