My friend asked if I would consider this color mauve. Once she asked that I started liking the color a little bit less and having flashbacks to 1986. Maybe I am in denial, but I think this is a softer, more elegant color. If anything, it is mauve’s third cousin twice removed.
I am still deciding if I like the color, Dunn Edwards Chocolate Milk (DE6059). We decided to lightly sand and refinish the Douglas fir floors.
I found silk curtains for sale on overstock.com that match perfectly. Although, they do need to be ironed.

It’s not mauve! This is much softer, and it doesn’t scream “nail polish,” which I’m pretty sure is mauve’s other name. Looks great!
lol!
Totally not mauve! I like it – very soothing and calm. Spa-like.
On this cool evening in Oregon I fixed myself a cup of hot chocolate and sat down to check your progress. I think your chocolate milk room with crisp white trim is beautiful.
I like it. Subtle and calming. More like Ashes of Roses?
