Pick a Color; Any Color

Every now and then, I have a client who wants to change a color in a nautical chart to match their paint.  My advice to them usually was: Wait to paint.  Well that is yesterday's technology.

 Today you can match colors --or change colors -- BEFORE your mural arrives.  Once you know the colors, you can go ahead and order tile, paint, etc. and know your mural will match when UPS delivers it on your doorstep.  

When you are not waiting on a key component to your decorating scheme to arrive, you can begin on other task and hasten your date of completion. 

Here is why we can do this:  Benjamin-Moore has now made the colors in ALL of their color collections available to download in graphic software.  We have now downloaded every color collection and every color Benjamin-Moore has.  Our graphic expert, Kathryn Tyler, can now substitute any of the colors that appear in a NOAA nautical chart for one that you choose from the Benjamin-Moore pallets of color.  Just let us know what specific collection it is coming from, and the name and number of the color.  Don’t bother sending us a swatch; all we need is the name of Bennie-Mo's specific color collection, and the specific chart color and number. Tell us which chart color you wish to replace and we are ready to go.

Yes, it will cost a bit extra to do this, but although Kathryn’s time is valuable, she indeed works fast.  We have to do a separate bid for each color change, but all of our customers to date agree that her charges are reasonable.

So you don’t like a light blue color for your shallower waters?  Make it Rosamilla Green 592.  Think the land color can be improved?  You might choose French Quarter Gold 287.  And why not put substitute the crazy hot pink of Razzle Dazzle 1348 instead of the magenta color of your compass rose?

NOAA has the charts.  You have the imagination.  Bennie-Mo and Nautical Chart Wallpaper have access to all the cool colors you could want!

This can get fun in a hurry!

  "Skipper" Steve Morris has been sailing for more than 45 years. Whenever Skipper's sailor friends used to talk about their sailing adventures, it was not unusual for them to grab a chart, unroll it to a certain island or waterway, and tell a story of what happened during a particular voyage. As Skipper realized that nautical charts are used for navigating stories as well as passageways, the idea of nautical chart murals came naturally. What better place to tell a tale of the sea than in one's own home or office than with a beautiful nautical chart mural as the visual aid!

   In 2013, he moved to the Coeur d'Alene area of Northern Idaho with his wife Linda. When Skipper is not working on murals, you can find him sailing his Erickson 27' on Lake Coeur d’Alene.

   He continues to design custom-made wallpaper from nautical charts, satellite photos, topographical maps and favorite photos.
