Love that scene, R12.
[quote]Now, Mr. PeDelford, we'll discuss painting.
[quote]I had some samples. Here we are.
[quote]Now first the living room. I want it to be a soft green,
[quote]Not as blue as a robin's egg.
[quote]But not a yellow-green as daffodil buds. Now, the only sample I could get is a little too yellow, but don't let whoever does it go to the other extreme and get it too blue.
[quote]It should just be a sort of grayish-yellow-green.
[quote]Now, the dining room. I'd like yellow. Not just yellow, a very gay yellow. Something bright and sunshiney. I tell you Mr PeDelford, if you'll send one of your men to the grocer for a pound of their best butter, and match that exactly, you can't go wrong!
[quote]This is the paper we're going to use in the hall. It’s flowered. But I don't want the ceiling to match any colors of the flowers. There's some little dots I want you to match. Not the greenish dot near the hollyhock leaf, but the little bluish dot between the rosebud and the delphinium blossom. Is that clear?
[quote]Now the Kitchen is to be white. Not a cold, antiseptic hospital white.
[quote]A little warmer, but still, not to suggest any other color but white.
[quote]Now the Powder Room in here, I want you to match this thread, and don't lose it. It's the only spool I have and I had an awful time finding it! As you can see, it's practically an apple red. Somewhere between a healthy Winesap and an unripened Jonathan."
I wonder what shade of blue the "little bluish dot between the rosebud and the delphinium blossom" was.
