Colour Comparing
On-screen colours are merely a digital representation, and will vary from screen to screen (device to device). Depending on your screen/device, the colour(s) that I share online may naturally seem slightly different in person. Lighting and surroundings dictates colours! I picture all my pieces against a white backdrop with white lighting, as I feel this portray’s the truest colour in digital form— however depending on the wall colour and lighting in your home, the colour may slightly differ. Here are some pictures to help aid with online colour consideration:
Before & After
Deep Sea Green Coastal Chippy Cabinet
A big thank you to one of my ever-so-kind followers that shared this piece with me! She had seen it on Marketplace, and thought it might catch my fancy! Well it most certainly did, however comes with a bit of a funny story— the thing is, it looked soooo much bigger than it actually was in the Marketplace ad; so big in fact that we took the truck for the trip— which we avoid when possible to save $ on fuel! We most certainly didn’t need the truck, as it would have easily fit into my cross-over like a glove! WHICH I think might be a positive for many, as not everyone has space for large pieces, nor does everyone have a truck to haul. This one is a quaint and moderate piece indeed, and I’d happily deliver it to a fellow Manitoban in my crossover!
