(Now, that’s dedication.)Ĭheck out Glidden’s site for more information: Glidden Team Colors Detroit Red Wings? Covered like an octopus. Are you a Michigan Wolverine fan (my condolences) or an Ohio State Buckeyes alum? Check. So, do you want the paint your game room Stanford Cardinal Red for the Big Game? No problem. Glidden did all the work up front and computer-matched literally hundreds of team colors, so you simply need to check out the brochure to see if your team is in there, and then order how much of each color you want. What is the “Team Colors” product? It is simply a “stroke” of genius on behalf of Glidden and Home Depot - they worked out licenses with a whole bunch of professional sports leagues to get the “official” colors of their respective teams. I get to say “Home Depot to the Rescue.” (I never thought those words would ever leave my brain, because shopping at HD is third on my pain scale after the two above) But it’s true! My wife Patty found out that Home Depot has teamed up with Glidden Paints to offer the Team Colors line of paints.
I could already picture the end result looking more like a circus tent than a hockey locker room… How many teal swatches am I going to have to wade through to find the closest match to San Jose’s? Let’s face it, although I’m not color-blind….I’m definitely color-dumb. Hey, why not? He’s an accomplished ice hockey player, and a rabid Sharks fan… I could already feel the sweat trickling down the back of my neck. To add to the fun on this project, our 12-year old son informed us he’d like to paint his room the color of the San Jose Sharks. I truly admire interior designers for their ability to make something useful out a sea of seemingly identical 1″ x 1″ samples. Anything activity that involves so many similar choices and options just makes my head spin.
I don’t mind the actual painting part of painting the room, but picking the colors out is probably my least favorite activity on this planet, next to getting my teeth drilled. Is re-painting one of your children’s rooms on your “to-do” list this year? Yep, me too.
