I too have the paint swatch problem. I call it a problem, because I dont think I would consider me an addict. You win that one. LOL I have always thought there must be something you could make out of these. Can you imagine some cool craft projects using them. All of the home stores would suddenly be out around the country! <BR/>I love you chunky pink buddah bunny too! luv, gailgailhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03377043892646115876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2391792078836906166.post-83787663562831083242008-06-10T23:43:00.000-04:002008-06-10T23:43:00.000-04:00Whoo-Hoo Michelle!!

I get so many ideas from the multitude of colors, then try my hardest to match them, mixing my own paints. Every once in a while I'm actually able to! Not often, but enough to keep my fascination with paint chips alive..lol<BR/><BR/>I originally stopped by to invite you to visit my blog...I'm featuring a Blog Contest this week, so, if you have time, I'd love to see you there~<BR/>Big Hugs,<BR/>Michelle<BR/>xoxoRose Petals &amp; Bloomshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00593058358546787265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2391792078836906166.post-45696702373362363182008-06-10T00:26:00.000-04:002008-06-10T00:26:00.000-04:00OMG Shelli!

My drawers are so full of paint swatches that you can't even close them. Sometimes I will take them out and just look at the pretty colors...Ok maybe after the bottle of wine. My Mom was looking for a color to paint her sewing room and I told her to go to Lowes or Home Depot and get a bunch of paint swatches that made her feel good!!! Too funny. Are we sisters or just cousin dorkwads??<BR/>InkaInka Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15803861268363139340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2391792078836906166.post-45466219062763128262008-06-09T22:47:00.000-04:002008-06-09T22:47:00.000-04:00I throughly enjoyed your entertaining post.

I'm so jealous and also so convicted! Michelle - this is too funny - I also am addicted to paint swatches (though I never admitted it to myself or anyone else before!)<BR/><BR/>In fact I was in a cleaning frenzy the other morning when I couldn't sleep and got up at 4:30 and in my blitz I actually threw away a handful of swatches! GASP! In the moment I was thinking ok, I really have to get serious here and stop hording everything so I can have a zenlike peaceful home (yeah right!) and later I thought What the heck?! Those swatches didn't take up that much room :( but then I figured hey, now I can go get new swatches!! Thank goodness they are free :)<BR/><BR/>Love the Bhudda Bunny ... rub his tummy for me would ya?<BR/><BR/>Love ya girl!!<BR/>XOXO<BR/>DianneDianne - Mama's Pocketbookhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17241435594133612264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2391792078836906166.post-64185133165725238772008-06-09T20:31:00.000-04:002008-06-09T20:31:00.000-04:00This is hysterical...or would be if I did not admit that I have 20 paint swatches...not to mention the free booklets...that I just added to my collection last Friday!!! BUT..I did buy a gallon of "oops" paint for $10, so I can justify that stash...however, the other perhaps 100 or more...sigh...<BR/> Susan (dutchrose)Susanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18354808437258462438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2391792078836906166.post-16280726991416789522008-06-09T20:24:00.000-04:002008-06-09T20:24:00.000-04:00omg, shell...i am in tears laughing at you with the paint swatches. you are a riot of a dorkwad, my friend. oh...and how can i forget budda bunny? that is great! <BR/><BR/>i am glad your bunny is not smushed in the road too. <BR/><BR/>love, your dorkwad friend...carolynCraft Divahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12700793485265268524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2391792078836906166.post-33943802903187849982008-06-09T20:15:00.000-04:002008-06-09T20:15:00.000-04:00That is just too funny~ your own paint swatches~ now you will never sleep at night~up all night looking at new colors!
