    I have those same two paint chips taped to the front of my buffet table, but mine have been there for several months. I’m curious to see what you decide and see how it looks!

    Sounds like a swell weekend. I like that smiling wall a lot, and have you seen this blog devoted to decorating with turquoise shades? http://www.houseofturquoise.com/

    I love the colors for the dresser! The lightest color is what my bridesmaids are wearing, so I love that color already!

    Would you mind sharing which colors those are on the paint chips for your dresser? I’m looking for an awesome turquoise to paint a dresser of my own. Did you settle on a specific color yet?
