the first place we went in the car was out to Swan Island to visit Metro Paint. we painted the living room using recycled paint. some very smart, creative person started using up all the odds and ends of paint that gets disposed of. you can get 7 or 8 different colors. but ours isn't one of the standard mixes. we choose Potpourri 31, a color that got mixed up in a very small batch. only a few 5 gallon buckets of this exact color exist in the world. and we've got one. we only used a little bit, so if you need some paint, i might be able to get you a deal!
