French Blue

 As we work our way through the house doing paint therapy, the living room has become a controversial color. I say that it's a grey/green (and I spent lots of time picking the exact color that I wanted so I firmly believe that I'm RIGHT!).  Steve says it's blue.  The kids say it's green.  My mom says it's French Blue.  It's called Verdigris and apparently it changes colors throughout the day with the lighting.

(This is the old terra cotta color, by the way.)

Here's a little more "french blue" for French Inspiration over at French Cupboard...


 Come on over and visit the other gals who are participating in Voila today!

  6. I agree, it's a very pretty color.

    That sounds like some of my and my husband's discussions. We actually had a similar one a couple of weeks ago. I said something about matching paint to the marble on the back porch. He said, "that brown?" No, green. Turns out neither of us was right. But I was closer. LOL

  19. I think it's a bluish green more blue than green. I'm loving this french blue. You really did make a good choice in the color that you picked.

  21. I like how it changes colors during the day depending on the amount of light in the room. You should keep it as long as possible because it's a great fun thing to have around when it comes to the mystery of it's true color.
