Looking at all the nearly identical browns, I'm pondering whether I have enough local polish loving friends to have a de-duping party, where we'd swatch to find dupes, then I'd choose one of each set of dupes to keep and the other ones would go home with my guests so I wouldn't be tempted to put them all back in my Helmers. That sounds like more fun to me than some parties I've been to.

Wow, that's a lot of neutrals! I think a lot of purging could be done on that A5 wheel...
