I have Certainly Celery in my stamp room. My last stamp room was a barely banana color - well I tried, it was a little brighter, but I liked it. My stamp room before that was Mellow Moss.

Another room that is by our upstairs is a Bashful Blue color. DH doesn't like the Certainly Celery. He said it looks like puke green. I like it.

I can't paint in my apt but I have SU colored furniture & bed linens! My furniture is a nice Garden Green color. My bedding is Chocolate Chip, Cool Caribbean, and Saraha Sand!

My bedroom is a slightly darker shade of mellow moss! I painted it this color 5 years ago and if I were re-painting, I'd paint it the same color! Our kitchen is Cool Caribbean!

I need to repaint my bedroom...soft sky is a lovely colour, although I think I'd like it a shade darker so it's not too washed out. It should look awesome with the new dark brown furniture I hope to get :mrgreen:

My kitchen is exactly Mellow Moss. My bedroom is close to a Ruby Red. My den is a khaki color (don't know what would match this). My little girls room is Lovely Lilac and Green Galore. It may sound kind've yucky, but it's so cute! Her bedroom is actually a Tinker Bell bedroom done in Disney colors.

I remember a thread like this about a year or so ago. It's kind've funny how the same things roll around again. Kind've like clothes coming back in style.

I love hearing what everyone has done! I'm moving after Christmas and am trying to decide what colors I want to paint. I though I lost my mind when I came up with the idea to do SU colors. So glad to hear I'm not the only one! lol!

Thats funny that there was a previous thread about this. Things do really come back around!

I would think a mixture of true thyme and river rock is khaki.

My hubby and I painted our house in spring this year.
One day hubby was looking over my shoulder as I was looking through the catalog. He said, "wow, I really like those colors together" and he was talking about the Boho West collection in the catalog . . . the catalog that came out in July.
I told him that I wasn't surprised that he liked those colors, they were the exact colors in our entire house!!!!!!

Creamy Caramel kind of color on our entry & living room walls
Close to Cocoa in our kitchen (the color paint is actually named Chocolate, it's by Ralph Lauren)
Very Vanilla on the bottom 1/2 of the walls in the formal dining area and in the downstairs bath
with Sage Shadow on top 1/2 of the walls in the formal dining.
Chocolate chip accents
And copper accents which are representative of the Really Rust.

I was floored to see that we had used all of the colors in this collection - how fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I painted my new kitchen/dining room area certainly celery with one wall old olive! DH was shocked at first, but it grew on him!
You can see the old olive in the bg here and the celery here

My master bedroom and the bathroom are soft sky. I just love it! The living room/dining room is a colour that is maybe a mix between more mustard and summer sun. I like that too.

In November, my husband painted our master bathroom Blue Bayou. It looks stunning with our dark maple cabinets and our taupe-colored marble counters (I guess they are Very Vanilla with River Rock veining). The flooring tiles are a darker taupe. I took a piece of BB cardstock to the paint store to find a color.

My family room was repainted right before the new InColors came out, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that my walls are exactly River Rock (which is my favorite of the InColors). My living room is quite close to Blue Bayou, though it had been painted a few years ago. I have a few Real Rust walls as accents, and one that is close to Artichoke (in the River Rock room).

We repainted our bedroom a couple of years ago and the color is very close to certainly celery(with no plan of that happening). I wanted to match the comforter set and that was the color I chose.

Our craft/bonus room is Cool Caribbean and my living room, dining room and kitchen are So Saffron. In the early light of early morning they take on hues of Apricot Appeal.
Believe it or not, I have a Boho west top and a black and white silk Baroque blouse!

I just re-painted my bathroom this summer. It's now Blush Blossom. I think it's a perfect color for bathrooms, it makes complexions look great!!

I painted my stamp room Groovy Guava. I love it and everyone that comes over just falls in love with it. My husband says it is just a big pink room but what does he know. These pics are before I actually began to decorate it... and as soon as I clean it from all the holiday stamping I will take some more but here is a peak at the color. I just love it. And walmart matched the color up for me off of cardstock. I decorated it with Toile which really complements the Groovy Guava.

I just painted my stamp room River Rock. I have black accents and am really liking it!

I just took the cardstock to Menards and they matched the paint exactly to it.

The reason I picked that color is because the room is right off my bedroom which is painted an Old Olive color.

I painted my hallway close to cocoa and it is beautiful. I taped some cardstock to the wall for a day or so before I had it painted to make sure I'd like it. My scrap room is sage shadow and I like that, too.

My living room is in pumpkin, cranberry and vanilla . . . I really like it, it is the warmest room in the house with the exception of the family room which is in a shade that is almost close to cocoa.

I started painting my home last March, long before I knew what the "In-Colors" would be...turns out, the walls are a very close match to River Rock. It's a nice neutral, but gives enough color to not be blah.

I (my DH! LOL) painted the back Dining room and the front living room Close to Cocoa. And in the middle is my kitchen, which is being painted Soft Sky (color matched fom reinker on white paper). The kitchen has accents of deep red and tuscan yellow. All 3 colors are taken from a rooster staue I have in the kitchen. Soft Sky and those 2 colors look great together! I have before pics on my blog, and as soom as my camera works again, i will post the after pics!!!
Here are before pics- if you look close at middle pic, you will see yellow red and a Blue that inspired me.

The base color throughout my house is just a tad darker than Creamy Caramel and the baseboard is Chocolate Chip. We went with a Tuscan theme, so we used a lot of those rich colors in the main area of our home--Tuscan Olive (which is a lot like Old Olive), So Saffron, and Elegant Eggplant.

We also painted the ceiling in our great room Bashful Blue and DH and his brother are painting clouds on it--just like the Venetian in Vegas if you've ever been there. It looks like you're outside when you're inside--pretty cool IMO!

My living room and bedroom are really rust.
My hallway and kitchen are so saffron.
My bathroom and spare room are mellow moss.

They've been these colours for about 5 years and we are just in the process of choosing new colours.
