Best color for memorabilia rooms
 
Posted By: <b>Mike H</b><p>My current room is a green that is waaay to blue-ish. I'm looking at darker green and considering a brick redish color. What do you guys like? I don't want brown because of all the gloves, bats, and dark mahogany furniture. I want something that will make the memorabilia stand out, but still have that den/museum look to it. I know a light tan would make things pop, but then I wouldn't have the warmth of deeper colors. If you have a pic to post of what you did, that would be terrific.

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>I used two colors of green...even though I did a crappy job on that corner. <img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14> I still like the colors.<br /><br /><a href="http://s22.photobucket.com/albums/b331/nudan92/?action=view&current=xmas2007-3092.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b331/nudan92/xmas2007-3092.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

Posted By: <b>Greg Theberge</b><p>Hey guys,<br /><br />Beige/tan is what I used. The "room" is for the beer. The Sox are in the bedroom (good thing my wife's a Sox fan).This photo doesn't do the room justice...too much light from the flash. Usually it's more subdued (did I spell that right?)<br /><br />Here's the room as it looks this morning. That big thing on the floor is a concrete/marble terrazzo bar top we just picked up, made in 1916 and weighs about 400 lbs.<br /><br /><img src="http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z192/HiNeighbor_2007/IMG_1606.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Believe it or not Mike I used tape. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> Not very well, but I did...then I tried to touch it up and that's what I got. My wife said if you're looking at the paintjob then your not looking in the right places.

Posted By: <b>Brock G.</b><p>I think that panoramic photo is enough to take the attention away from the paint in the corner. That thing is HUGE!

Posted By: <b>Mike H</b><p>I love the beer stuff Greg. That bar top is FANTASTIC! I would like my office to be a little darker, so maybe beige and green. I keep coming back to green. More pics...more, more, more!

Posted By: <b>Ryan</b><p>My sports room is a dark green. I like the way it looks with the wood in frames and browns in leather.<br /><br />[IMG]<img src="http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k242/madisonry/IMG_3499.jpg">[/IMG]
