Seesaw / Scale Color Showdown

Remember when you were a kid on a seesaw and one side might be heavier than the other?  Or like the scales of justice which side was most heavier on the win?  I'm finding myself in a predicament on where to go with the Comstock rug.  I started pulling colors based on the picture in the Kopp book with a blue and darker brown at the top and planned for a primitive black bottom.  If you scroll down to my previous blog post you can see what I mean.

Then after carefully looking the photo of the original Mary Comstock photographs (also on that same blog post) started to doubt my colors.  Not only from a true blue to a teal but also from a dark brown top to a warm brown. Today I grabbed some wool to lay beside what I've hooked to see how the scale will move....dark brown & blue / warm brown and teal???????
All of a sudden I'm not having much fun hooking so have no idea what I'll do.  Tonight guess I can just veg out and see what's on TV other than news.  I do like the History and Discovery channels so maybe I'll venture there.  Otherwise given my leanings right now I'd probably be pulling out a lot of loops.
Hmmm, maybe I'll continue slowly binding my monochromatic floral.  At least I know what needs to be done there.
