Burgundy and Gold

I know the Redskins colors are burgundy and gold, but i was wondering, like, what shade of burgundy is it? I'm decorating my room, and i plan on painting the walls half burgundy, half gold, and there are many different shades of burgundy, but i don't know which one is closest. Also, what shade of gold would be closest to the redskins colors as well?

Re: Burgundy and Gold

Take a Skins Jersey (preferably an authentic) to Home Depot and tell the sales rep at the paint section "I want these two colors." Make him test the paint before you take off for home.

I have NEVER heard the Skins colors called Burgundy and mustard.

Re: Burgundy and Gold

I'm doing my Redskins room soon too. I find the burgundy the team uses to be a little too dark for a room, I don't want it to look like a cave. I'm going a few shades lighter, I'll post some pics once I'm done.

Re: Burgundy and Gold

I painted mine burgundy with gold trim. Once your in Lowes or Home Depot you can match up the 2 colors side by side and pick two that match together well. My room does in fact look pretty dark, Id suggest you use more gold than burgundy. But either way I love it.

Re: Burgundy and Gold

my carpet is gonna be burgundy, and then the bottom half of the wall will be burgundy as well, then it will be gold the other half. Also, i'm not getting the paint at Lowe's or Home Depot, my sister works at a paint store and she is hooking my family up with all the paint, because we are going to redecorate the whole interior of my house.
