Terracotta sounds such an easy colour to match but I've struggled with it in the past and just wondered what your thoughts were.Vagabondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14031648950206231742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021096045371174446.post-58950805638280223532018-09-16T03:18:10.592-07:002018-09-16T03:18:10.592-07:00Very nice David.
