painted difference

A while ago, like last-year-ago, I chose this paint color out with Mark for a front door. I remember it being a soft, muted sage-like color. While my mother was here visiting, we decided to knock this off my to-do list. We started to paint, and as it had been so long, I thought my memory must be failing me - it looked BROWN. Like our house-color, almost. I was so upset and ready to go to the paint store for a fresh can of paint... with a color I thought Mark might like. 

My mom insisted that we just stick to it.. even when it was done, it did NOT look green. It still looked brown like our house, but I had begun to like it. Then we shut the door after it dried. 

We stepped back... 

IT WAS GREEN! HALLELUJAH! It must have just been the interior light or something. I have no idea! 

But I love it.
