Revere Pewter- O'Brien Style


Revere Pewter is beautiful, popular and infuriating.  It can look gray or beige depending on the lighting, room, etc.  With so much gray going in the house, we hoped it would look beige in the den off the kitchen.  But it took on a gray tone.  So we took the can back to Benjamin Moore and had them add (3 times) more red.

RESULT:  A more beige-y color.  Here is the contrast between Revere Pewter and our customized blend.
