paint samples

*might* have over done it with the Martha Stewart paint samples. I want to paint a wall in my place a warm darkish gray. I may end up doing stripes or some other pattern with all the samples. I think it was an okay deal for 18-8oz samples for $24 including tax and shipping. Each jar is supposed to cover approximately 16 feet. I'm hoping to have enough to stripe the one small wall and then have extra to paint a furniture piece in a neutral color.  I ordered these from The Home Depot. It stinks that they didn't use clear plastic/glass so you can see the colors instantly instead of having to open them all.
