Failed Colors

I was very sad today in accepting that I had chosen a poor color for the guest room. Pumpkin Patch looks much better in Home Depot than it looks on the fourth wall of our guest room. We primed over it and will be painting it a nice brown called Wooden Cabin.

I sighed and asked Corey what on earth we could do with the deliciously rich orange paint. He paused for a moment and then told me, "We could go throw it at old ladies wearing fur coats."

With the orange you can paint rocks and then buy black paint and make jak-o-lantern rocks for everyone for halloween...

you could save it to dot the squirrels that come into your backyard...

You could use it to paint a wall in another room...the maybe it would spruce up a wall of the basement? Are your basement walls paintable? I also like the jack-o-lanterns idea - be crafty!

You could...uhhhhh...I really wanted to add a good idea, too, but I don't have one yet. Dang!

Someone else got to it first, but I was totally going to say the basement!! What better way to use up paint samples and lost colors than to make a multi-color patchwork mural around the stand alone potty??
