'Tea Stained' muslin look doll
Comments (1)Do you want it stained evenly and all over,or spotted like antiquey.If it's spotted,just make up some tea,use and old rag,a sponge or even a paper towel and just spot it on.Then throw it in the dryer,or put in the sun to set it. I made a quilt a few years ago,a scrappy.After i got it all together i noticed that this one section of an americana block had too white of a background,so i di just what i told you to do and it worked out wonderfully well.It's been washed a couple times,but nothing changed.

Comments (2)A friend of mine just built a lovely new home and used Muslin throughout. It is too 'safe' for me, but it did turn out to be a nice creamy pale pale golden tan. It does have an almost imperceptible green undertone....See MoreAny Pics of BM White Sand, BM Muslin or BM Cream Fleece Walls?
Comments (6)You are so very welcome! :-) We tested a "gajillion" colors for the FR (this room is off the FR) until we finally settled on Mascarpone (one of my first choices, BTW, but DH wasn't too keen on it at first). Somehow I just knew that the Muslin would be the winner in the Guest Bedroom from the get-go. I did look at a two or three darker colors in there as well, just to be 100% sure, but really wasn't ready to go darker in there. Muslin is a terrific neutral color. We both absolutely love the Muslin. It looks a little creamier during the day, leans more toward khaki at night, but looks great either way. We are very happy with the Aura matte--have used it in every room we've painted over the past 5-6 years, incl ceilings (used matching colors to the wall colors in the satin finish on the baseboard molding in all rooms)....See Morepaint color help - Muslin, cream fleece, or Mouses’s Back
Comments (10)I always wonder what people decide and how it looks. I painted the cabinets Farrow &Ball Mouses’s Back. the walls are Benjamin Moore Ballet White. Trim and doors are Benjamin Moore Simply White. I love it and think it looks much more serene and calm. Before and After...See Moreruthieg_tx
