Painting my Office when terribly wrong, now i need help?

mid-level jobs
Brad25 asked:

My office walls have a mid-level molding that separates it. On the bottom I have a brown wall paper and the top is painted. Well my business partner wanted a deep brown on top so we tried it and it does not look good at all, so the question is how I fix it with out repainting the whole office again. What I was thinking is a maybe a light brown mixed with glaze over the top to give it a kind of faux look. But the problem is with faux jobs the light paint is usually the base coat, so has anyone had any experience with the top layer being the light coat instead of the dark coat. THANKS
Brad

    I had the same problem and this what I did
    I got two different paints in the same value with about 3-4 shades lighter of each other and some glaze and started sponging over the real dark color and it turned out better then I ever dreamed

    i think it would look pretty much the same . does not matter which color goes on first. try a small area first
