MH wants to paint O's room while I'm away with the kids. We haven't painted it yet since we moved in two years ago and the color blue that it is now is too dark for a little boy's room imo. I wanted something lighter and brighter for his room so I got two paint samples. The one on the left has more teal/green to it and the one on the right is more blue. I took a bunch of pics under different lighting conditions so you can see. I'm afraid color 1 (left) might be too similar to Z's room (I attached a pic of her room as well). MH thinks color 2 (right) might look too "sky blue" when you paint a whole wall with it. What do you think? Color 1, color 2, or neither??? This is not a poll because I'm mobile.      |

I personally like the one on the left better, but it does look simialar to Z's room. Do you have any leftover paint from her room to see a side by side comparison?

God his room is so dark compared to these two colors I feel like either will brighten up the room.

I love color 1, but I'm biased, it's very similar to the color I've been eyeing for V's room once we move (as long as he let's me pick the color).

I prefer color one, too. It has a brighter element than 2. I see a little grey in 2.

I like both colors, and actually the 2nd looks similar to the color I painted in our guest room. It's definitely light and bright. I don't think the first one looks that close to Z's room, hers is much more green.

I actually asked her about it a few weeks ago when I started thinking about this but I decided that it was too close to our playroom color. |

I think I prefer #2 also. I agree that it has a bit of grey in it, which makes it a bit more mature I think
