I'm in desperate need of some help re colours! we're chosen our colours like months ago, but now im having second thoughts and thought I would ask you. We've chosen Wattyl's Winter Sky as the wall colour throughout our home and Wattyl Calfskin as our splashback colour (omg dont ask me why ) We've chosen a Polar white kitchen and Ice qq benchtop. I';ve had a look around PD's website (we're building with them), and I've seen this picture of one of their display homes. The splashback colour is "white" haha, and the wall colour is Wattyl Astor White. So i wanted to know: 1. Is there much difference between Winter Sky and Astor White? 2. Is Calfskin colour the biggest mistake of my life! I don't have any of the colour samples with me, so thats why its making my life even more difficult. Any feedback would be great. Thanks!! Thuy grr i cant get the photo to work, so here is the link to the website http://www.porterdavis.com.au/#homeview ... /mernda2_p its the kitchen picture...sorry! Re: please help michelle >.< 2Jun 11, 2008 12:23 pm Hi Newbies, jsut a little suggestion, seeing as Michand Kitty are flat out (apparently)
Can you get sample pots from your local paing supplier? I would then get 2 large sheets of card (or even a box) , and paint them. Move around the house with them both. This will give you different light perspectives on the different colors, and how they will look in differnt patrts of the house,and at different times of the day.

The Winter Sky is lovely! The Calfskin………………. Is there any way you can get out of using this colour? Or is it too late! If you’re stuck with it I would do it double strength. I just tried to download the colours off Wattly site, but no good! I don’t know what to say to you, except try and get out of using Calfskin!!!!! Good luck let me know how you get on!
