Lesson learned

So I went into the paint store and was looking through the thousands of color choices for just the right shade of warm beige maybe even - dare I say it - a bold tan! I was told by the very nice man at the paint store that I wanted to go a shade or two darker than I thought because it would look lighter in the sun. So I bought just a quart of this shade to try it out...

Kinda boring, right?

Nothing too bold, you say?

The same color that looks so boring up close, looks ORANGE in large quantities on my house.

Quart of paint - $10

Paintbrush - $7.50

Not living with an orange house - Priceless
