It could be worse I guess...think gothic black.
>Ahhh the pink phase! Been there, done that. I actually had a deep burgandy red room and it was quite a chore painting it and then repainting it afterwards. I am very happy with her recent choice of sky blue. :o) The things we do for our kids!

>>PFMJI, but I have to correct your typo...your "fuscia" should be "fuchsia". The ridiculous reason I know this is that there is an ingrained memory from a Johnny Carson show years ago when Walter Matthau had explained to Johnny that fuchsia is spelled "F - U - C", (followed by a pregnant pause), "H-S-I-A". I can't remember what I had for breakfast, but I remember this.

>>By the way, your talk of paint is timely, I just spent the last couple of nights painting my 1 daughter's room "country pink" (she's 8). This was not long after the other 8 year old daughter got red on her 4 walls. NOTE: avoid painting walls red! (multiple coats needed).
