But we are actually doing the beadboard wainscoting in semi gloss (with polyurethane over that), so are going with an eggshell for the paint on the top half of the wall. Mainly because I want the contrast, and not too much glossy-on-glossy. <br />I actually really like Benjamin Moore's Natura line because it's low VOC and the eggshell finish isn't overly glossy, but it cleans a whole lot better than a flat paint. It's what we've used so far in every room of our house, and the Ben Moore sample pots and the Natura paint are a spot-on match for color. We actually found a color in the Natura that will work for us this weekend!Morganhttp://thehandcraftedlife.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2221719422844320229.post-57778897722491281702012-11-09T16:44:19.950-05:002012-11-09T16:44:19.950-05:00Have a nice weekend!!

Because I always have problems with the color I want and the color I get because of the glossiness, even if it's very slight!! Gray always looks purplish or periwinkle (like in my daughter's nursery)!Jennifer Shioyanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2221719422844320229.post-82014032364965934642012-11-09T13:02:50.986-05:002012-11-09T13:02:50.986-05:00Have a great weekend, and happy birthday to your h...Have a great weekend, and happy birthday to your husband! I hope you find the right shade of green for the bathroom. That kind of stuff drives me crazy, too! Heatherhttp://www.highheelsflipflops.com/noreply@blogger.com
