How Aged Paint Can Save You A Bundle
Who would think of the wonderful mix of Kelly green with deep Indigo? A clever person with a great eye for color. (No, it wasn’t me.)
More importantly, the aged patina is truly brilliant. It adds a third color, which adds more depth to the room as a whole. But it also makes the obvious age of the shelves seem appropriate. These shelves are aged, but not neglected.
Imagine them painted with a solid color and those warped shelves would be screaming, “Fix me!” The next time you think something in your home must be torn out, or thrown away, think again. Maybe all it really needs is an interesting paint job.

This reminds me of my bedroom when I was a kid! It was kelly green and navy. Not quite the same, but close!
You’re right. This looks beautiful. I always love something “old” in a room… it makes everything seem more comforting and important…
