Using a color will somewhat limit the rest of the color scheme.<br /><br />I am about the worst person to ask as I have the same dilemma. Not sure what to paint my dining room hutch.<br /><br />xoxo Bunny JeanBunny Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07687082260887039604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186929171672526984.post-62145023048417651032012-07-24T21:09:43.023-07:002012-07-24T21:09:43.023-07:00I agree, the back blue and the rest white but I...I agree, the back blue and the rest white but I'd work some of the blue into the crevices so it looks like the blue is popping through the white.
