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.

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.

@ECBG You can keep the chest, I'll take the Chesterfield sofa ANY day!

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.
