Harvest Gold dilemma

Ok, so the fixtures in our downstairs bathroom are Harvest Gold originals ;) They really aren't that bad without the horrible wallpaper that covered the walls. I was going to paint the bathroom the same neutral color I'd chosen for the rest of the house, but Zach protested and said he wanted something a little different. Once he complained, I realized that there were going to be a lot of walls painted our neutral Valspar Woodrow Wilson Putty. That's when I decided to ask Ann McGuire, with Beehive Studios on the Color Buzz blog (a Valspar supported blog where you can get advice), what I should do. Her suggestion was Cake Batter or Woodlawn Lace. This weekend there will be samples procured and tried out on the walls. It's nice to have professional advice! Thanks, Ann!

Here is the bathroom before, with the horrible wallpaper.

This is Cake Batter.


This is Woodlawn Lace.


I can't wait to find out what works best!
