We went to our new place today to try some sample pot colours on the walls, and we're sort of undecided but do have a bit more of an idea...
We tried Light Rice Half (can't remember which brand this is, possibly Dulux), but found it sort of...yellow-toned...
We tried Dulux Suede Effects in Fossil Beige but found it SO orange/red/apricot in hue. We want more of a toned down version...we're thinking now of trying out either French Pebble or the Mushroom one. Does anyone have any opinion of them? Does anyone else find Fossil Beige is really, really apricot-y???
We also tried Taubmans Portland Stone and we THINK we quite like it...but we're not sure. We just put one thin coat on...obviously there'll need to be 2 coats done.
In general, does the 2nd coat make the overall colour DARKER or just more uniform? We don't want any darker than what's already on there with just one thin coat.
Does anyone have any opinion on Portland Stone as a shade? (I can't find anything on the Taubmans website to show you, sorry!)
Thank you!
