Theresa, my painter/friend and I redecorated "The Wind and Water Room" early in 2008. The muted aqua colors turned out beautifully. Theresa finished the woodwork in an ivory white.
Soon after, I began forming my "Goodwill Collection" -- paintings of wind and water-related subjects -- on the longest, unbroken wall. I also began hunting for aqua towels that would match or subtly complement these walls.
Too bad for me! Aqua towels in a moderate price range and quality cloth simply didn't seem to be out there.
Then, late last spring, TARGET came out with a line of bath sets in luscious colors...
