Plaster Repair - 2

After several coats of joint compound over the course of the week, I was finally happy with the results. And re-painted the room over the weekend.

We'd previously determined that while the existing color ("Wheeling Neutral") was OK, it wasn't great. The underlying tones were a little off compared to the carpet and window treatments. It was a little more grey/green than it should be.

We used our handy-dandy Benjamin Moore color wheel and selected "Desert Tan". It has a bit more red in its undertone which looks much better with the carpet and window treatments.

A month or so ago I purchased a quart and made a sample board so we could validate that it was the correct color. And experimented with some other things that will be revealed after I have a chance to implement them...
