I don't know if we traded info for a trade, if so I have lost it, sorry. Please let me know if you are still interested in the mint and redbud trees. I would still like the lavender iris and dark red one. Thank you

I used Blonde in a west facing room and it looked more orange than I was expecting and I didn't really like it. I have seen photos of it and I did like it, but the lighting may have been different. If you're not in a hurry, you might want to get a Color To Go sample, paint it on a foam board and see how it looks in the room at different times of day. If you like green, you might consider neutral gray greens. A few suggestions: SW Grassland, Comfort Gray, or Austere Gray. They all look great with warm woods and you can accent them with a lot of different colors - navy blue, burgundy, gold, dark green, beige or even bright colors like turquoise or orange. Comfort Gray is my all time favorite. If you try the Blonde and it seems too goldish/orange for you, check out SW Ivoire (on the same strip as Blonde, but lighter and less gold) or SW Believable Buff or Whole Wheat. Good luck.

I have a cobalt blue range in my garage waiting to be installed. I say, go for the red Berta! The only advice I have is to limit the red to just your range and then other things that are fairly easily changed. I have seen a Viking ad with a blue range, wall ovens, warming oven, microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator... WAY too much. Why would you want your dishwasher to be a focal point? Just the red range will look great. I personally plan to panel my refrigerator, warming drawer and dishwasher with wood, and the microwave will be stainless. You could also use stainless, since the Berta also has stainless on it. Also, if you ever tire of the red or need to sell to someone who doesn't like it, a range alone can be relatively easily changed. I obviously prefer blue to red, but if that red range will make you and your husband happy, if it will make you smile every morning when you go in to make your coffee, go for it. Why should your kitchen look like everyone else's?

A roof that's seven to nine feet above the ground, under a tree in a fairly narrow space between a house and a fence, will not be subjected to the same kind of wind force as a roof on a house. If there is a problem, it can be solved by some extra staples. That will be much easier than applying sheathing on the underside of a roof in a space that's too high to let me work lying down, and too low to let me stand up. So I'd like to stick to the question, please.
