Ok, the woman and all her cronies have a knack for color. I have to give it to them. I may not be able to relate to Martha on a whole lot of levels, but color is one thing that she ROCKS at. (yes, I can finish my sentences with “at” because I live in VA).
SO, her paint line that used to be sold at K-mart (boooo) is now revamped and at Home Depot (yaaaay).
So I naturally took one of every paint card to keep in my collection….
As you can see, these colors ROCK on furniture….I have already used THREE of the colors on my new pieces and I AM IN LOVE.
It may be a while before I venture outside of the Martha Stewart line…
THAT being said. The paint QUALITY is another thing. I bought 2 quart size cans of paint. One of them seemed to go on OK to a perfectly sanded and primed surface….the other can of paint was a HUGE disappointment. It did this awful bubbly thing- HORRIBLE finish!!! I was soooooo bummed!
SO WHAT TO DO? I am in love with the color line and questioning the quality of the paint. Of course I can color match them and use a better paint….but WHAT A PAIN?!!
I will say, Home Depot took it back no questions asked and gave me a fresh can of paint. Maybe it was just a bum can…but it makes me nervous. Hopefully this second can will go on smoothly. BUT I may just steal the colors and use another brand for a while….
Sorry Martha, its LOVE-HATE for me right now…but you are still the color master….
Cheers!
