Light vs Dark

I'm trying to figure out backs for my new living room pillows and I am completely stumped. Kona Bone? Or Kona Charcoal?

Charcoal would hide stains (I'm looking at you, honey) but cat hairs would show soooooo easily. Then again I do take a lint roller to the couch constantly, so what difference does a few pillows make, right?

My couch is sage green, but that doesn't really matter because there's just a riot of colour everywhere. I know my Mum is cringing at the thought of not having a colour scheme in the house heehee! I wish I could be like her, where everything in the house matches, but I'm a big ol' mess. I mean just look at the colours on the pillows. Does it look like I have any semblance of a colour scheme? Although as an ex-spin doctor, I prefer to call my mess 'shabby chic'. Ahem.

Anyway, HELP ME PLEASE?! Bone? Charcoal? Check myself into an asylum? What?!?! I will give you a chocolate chip cookie. Which I will eat on your behalf because I know you don't want stale cookies. Which they will be by the time they reach you. You're welcome.

I think either one would look great but I'm leaning towards charcoal.

split the difference - have any ash? if not, go for coal.

I dig the charcoal - it's not like you're unaccustomed to delinting the place on a regular basis!

I was gonna say bone, but it looks like I'd be the only one!

I do like the Bone, but the choice is truly your's!

Charcoal. It's fresh, modern, urban. And will not stain as easily when you eat the cookie you gave me on the couch because I know you're going to eat it on the couch. :-)

I like the charcoal. It seems to go with the pillow fronts better.

What, no one wants to suggest another color? I don't have a Kona color chart in front of me, but reds, blues, greens, or that lovely peach color all speak to me.

My vote goes to Charcoal. I love the way it brings the richness out it the print colours.
