I love Orange, Yellow, Greens etc but sometimes you can have too much of those colors. This was a situation we ran into this past weekend:)
We have been working on some home projects lately. We only have a few rooms left to paint. So after a relaxing Friday evening watching fast and furious (good movie by the way) we decided to take a trip to Lowes on Saturday to start painting the guest bedroom.
We found the colors we liked and to our surprise when we got home one of the colors we picked is more of a canary yellow. Not cool. On the sample it looks like a slight hint of yellow but on a larger scale its not just a hint:) Greg had other choice words for the color;)
We went back to Lowes to see if there was anything they suggested since we can not return custom colors. We added some white which muted the color slightly but in the end we had to give up and go with a totally different color:)Plus I think the yellow room was making us feel angry or like we were at a fast food joint.
We are happy with the changes, we just wish it didn't take two days to do a small project.

I love the new color....good call : )
Good color - more neutral instead of yellow. Usually yellow should be calming!! :)
