Hey Marisa (Marisa6826) !!!
I went to Benjamin Moore and saw a sample card with the 'Gingerbread Man'
paint color. Loved it! So, I bought a gallon of it and my DH painted our
den. It looks fabulous!! This color is so warm and comfy.

Thanks for the suggestion!! :)

And thanks to Tracy (ColorBlue) for the suggestion of the Benjamin Moore
color called 'Stem Green'!

I haven't used it yet but I have the gallon waiting in my laundry room. My
husband is going to put up tin tiles as my backsplash and then paint the
kitchen and tiles in the 'Stem Green' color.

I cannot wait!! The tin tiles were shipped on June 27th.

Ok, my computer room is getting too hot and I have a million other things to do and I can't seem to find the paint color on the BM website! Can someone please post a link to it? I tried google and it just isn't helping.

Help! I have been trying to find a dining room paint color forever and I want to scope this one out.

Thanks!! :)

This is the best way I can figure to get you there (someone else may find a more direct way!). Go to this link:

Click "Paint Now"
Then "Let's Paint"

Click on any room. It brings up a color sample. To the bottom left of it there is a link "Search for a color". Click it, then enter "Gingerbread Man"

Hope you find it!

I am feeling like a major loser at this moment. I was there before and didn't see the option to search by color name so I tried again. It's probably right there in front of me. I'll keep looking. Thank you!

Thanks again! It is a great color!

Hey Beth!

We painted our Dining Room a super awesome color. It is Benjamin Moore
'Dorset Gold'. I love it!! Even my husband loves the color and he really
could care less about what I pick!

Check it out!!

Okay, just to keep teasing you with my colors...

I picked out a great color for our living room. It is Benjamin Moore 'Rust'.
It looks horrible on the paint swatch card but the BM store in my area
is painted this 'Rust' color on the inside walls. And it looks awesome!!
(That's how I found out about the color!) I'll let you know more once
my DH paints the living room.

Our mudroom is painted Benjamin Moore 'Fresh Butter'. At first, I was
unsure about this color but it has really grown on me.

And, my daughter's bedroom is painted Benjamin Moore 'Pink Fairy'. This
is the most perfect lightest shade of pink. She loves it!

Tracy,
I just realized that our kids are almost the exact same age!!

My DD was born 11/01.
My DS was born 10/04.

You definitely need to get to one of our meet-ups!! :)

I don't have a digital camera! I am still old-school.

But I will take pictures of the colors and have a CD made. Then,
I can upload the pictures to photobucket.

I will wait until my husband paints the kitchen and living room.

Until I post the pictures, you can always check out this super cool
option on the Benjamin Moore website. This feature is called the
'Personal Color Viewer'. It allows you to pick different
colors and it *paints* the room so you can see what it looks like!
Very fun and quite addictive! :)
