Does anyone know the wall color name/brand? That is the color I want to paint the walls in my sunroom.

I have around 10 different blue-gray paint chips and can't decide which ones to swatch on the wall. Color always looks so different on the wall than on the little paint chip.

@River Song

Always go a shade lighter than what you want to end up with.

A room of colored walls appears a shade darker from all of the concentrated color.

The color is a grayed robin's egg blue.

Boy, don't I know this! The color of the sunroom is now a medium green and it's way too intense. It makes me wince, lol. I want a muted blue that is peaceful and relaxing.

An estimated 700,000 people around the world, 400,000 of them children, have died so far due to the discontinuation of the USAID program.

Pretty little seating vignette. Like the print, but agree with @ECBG, would prefer to see the ottoman used as an ottoman and an actual table in its place to be used, well, as a table. Imagine that.

In my pantry with my cupcakes...

Very attractive. I never use an ottoman in front of a sofa. They've "pushed that concept to exhaustion".
The origonal idea was "to provide extra seating", yet the ottoman is too close to the couch to allow seating.

@ECBG But it is there to serve food on, put your feet up on, and if it has a lid, to hide the magazines and paper napkins when company rings the doorbell unexpectedly.

I'd like to see a coffee table with a little personality.

I would never eat on an upholstered surface, it seems an "accident waiting to happen".

This seating area is nice with the soft colors. I like the blue wall & area rug. I'd like the ottoman if it had a different pattern. Not a fan of the side table that is cluttered on top - accessories also block the art on the right side. I'm not a fan of open shelving either, but it isn't bad as it doesn't take over the room. Thank you for sharing.
