Analysis Paralysis: Craft room color

As is my way, the craft room looks 100x worse now that I’ve started to “organize” it. The plan is to paint the walls yellow, move in some of the white cubby shelves that I’ve had since the original apartment, get some gray curtains, look at getting a counter-height table and GET CRAFTY!

But I’m stuck on step one. I’m torn between 2 different yellows.

Yellows.
Yellows.

Color 1 is called Surfboard Yellow.
Color 2 is called Sunbeam.

The window faces south, so no direct sunlight, if that even matters. And yes, the sellers painted over wallpaper so I plan on keeping up that tradition. I’ll look at those seams as a design feature.

Or maybe I’ll just lay washi tape down over top of them. 😉

So… 1 or 2?

    I like 2. The orangey undertone is different.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
