Thanks so much for all your sweet comme...Hi there,<br /><br />Thanks so much for all your sweet comments! I hope you have come back to read this, as I don't have an email or website for you. <br /><br />Unfortunately, we had the dresser spray painted by a professional who mixed a few of his own pigments together to match a piece of fabric I had with this particular green appearing in the leaves of the floral design, so I don't have a brand name colour for you, but I guess you could say it's a soft, rich olive-y green. I did some searching around for you and found this colour: http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/stemgreen, to be the closest match! Remember, colours can look quite different in various light. For example, if you take a look at this post of mine: http://poppyview.blogspot.gr/2013/05/a-spot-of-tea.html, you'll notice that here, the hue of the dresser is warmer, and that's probably because I snapped the photos a little later on in the day, when the light is not as bright or harsh. Hope I've helped, and good luck with finding your perfect shade! Thanks again, for visiting and hope to see you again, soon!<br /><br />PoppyPoppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397842596692895726.post-29128403273293582592014-08-29T18:08:47.172+03:002014-08-29T18:08:47.172+03:00What paint colour is that charming china dresser, ...What paint colour is that charming china dresser, please...Love your blog.
