BM Manchester Tan

I apologize if I have asked this already - but if you used BM Manchester Tan in your home could you please post a photo?

We tried some samples for our foyer & loft and we chose Manchester Tan...we had a painter come and he quoted us $500 for the foyer and loft which is less than what we expected (i have a feeling the same space in NY would be much more expensive to paint)....

I am really nervous - the foyer, staircase and loft is a huge area of our home - and because it's two stories we are hiring someone to paint (not worth DH or I getting hurt Chat Icon)....I am just scared that on top of the expense of the paint we are paying someone $500 - and what if I don't like it? It would be expensive to re-do Chat Icon

The other colors I have are BM Ladyfinger and BM Nantucket Gray...Part of our foyer is already BM Ladyfinger so the Manchester Tan and Ladyfinger will be together...another reason why I am so nervous!

Re: BM Manchester Tan

I don't have any of these colors in my house. My only thought would be to make sure they look good together. On my computer Manchester Tan and Lady Finger look like they have different undertones to them. You might want to stick to a darker or lighter color on the same paint chip strip as the Lady Finger.

Re: BM Manchester Tan

I cut a piece of sheet rock and painted the colors I was inbetween on, on it. It worked out great cause I put it in different lights to get a feel for how it would really look in the room.
