Current Mood:Disappointed emoticon Disappointed

Well I spent the entire day yesterday painting my son’s room with what I thought was a blue color after all his bedspread had multiple shades of blue in it, how could I miss right?  I started painting at around 9AM and finished about 10pm.  It looked awesome until I put his drapes and bedspread in there and low and behold it looked more purple next to it than blue.  I am totally disgusted and yes,  I wasn’t smart enough to take his drapes down there to make sure it matched. Knocks self in head several times.  Soooooo  I went down to Walmart  today and got the paint that actually matched his drapes (yes, I actually took them with me this time) So looks like I’m repainting tomorrow. Hubby says I’m nuts and am a glutton for punishment but he knows what a perfectionist I am and I wont be able to let it go.  (I hate that about myself) I thought of getting a new bedspread to match the walls but my son threw a fit because then he couldn’t have his superman bedspread anymore (He’s a superhero nut) so after lots of tears on his part I agreed to repaint. UGH!!  I can’t believe I’m doing this. Well major lesson learned. NEVER assume the color your looking at is gonna match unless you have the material in your hot little hand. sigh.

Wrong Color I picked       Right Color I needed
