We have a pink wall

The lady at the paint store assured me that the paint just appeared pink, and that when it was on the wall it would be red.  The lady was wrong.  We have one accent wall in the younger boys' room that needs to be red to match their new bedding.  She told me the color I wanted (flaming hot red) would be too dark.  I would rather a "too dark" wall for the boys than a pink wall.  Pretty sure they would too!  Back to the paint store tomorrow because I haven't secured a "yes" from the boys about the adoption.  If they get wind of a pink wall, we are doomed!
