Paint Chip Wall

Today I finally did one of my pins from Pinterest.  I have a boring white wall in my living room (just haven't gotten around to painting the darn thing) and I thought that this looked like something I could do for little or no cost until the wall could get painted.  Here is the original post:

Once in my trips to WalMart, I ransacked all of their paint chips.  My color scheme in the living room is sage and burgundy and tanish-brown.  So I picked up all of those colors and stored them in a bag.  Two months later....I finally created my own version!  Here is the before and after:



I am pleased with how it turned out.  It was a little hard to create diversity when I just had two sizes of chips to work with - I ended up folding a few of the longer ones to make it fit. I knew if I waited to have more of a collection to choose from, then this project would never happen, so I just went with what I had! But it will do for my purpose and for the time being!  What do you think?
