I was just wondering if anyone has tried the dragging or linen weaving technique using Tobacco Road? If so, what color glaze did you use? I’m looking for a very subtle weave look…not so much because I love that look, but more because I am trying to hide future fingerprints (I know that if I use a more satin-y sheen on th TR paint it is easier to clean, but I don’t want to be cleaning all the time and my little ones are very messy!). Thanks.

I don’t know if you read these comments on old posts, but I just had to leave one. We just bought a new house and I have been painting like a mad woman. Two of my favorite colors: Svelte Sage and Comfort Gray from Sherwin Williams! It’s just too funny that I keep seeing these colors on your site!

I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the formula of TR. I have been really struggling with finding a warm/yellow/beige that has color but isn’t too deep, too lemony, too gold etc. This is it, it’s perfect, now let’s hope I can find a SW store that can mix it! Thank You

This looks just like my “Crabapple” from Ralph Lauren….has green undertones too but def a neutral…looks so good against white trim and black furniture. :-)

Thank you so much for posting this color! I have been living with a color I HATE and last night I painted your tobacco rd. and am in L-O-V-E. It truly does go with everything.
