need help with tuscan kitchen color
Comments (5)I suggest SW 7710 Brandywine - it is a gorgeous color. I was hesitant when I saw the first coat go on - it was a little orange but when it was done (2 coats) it was awesome. I have it in my kitchen.... I tried red cent and a few others in that color family and none were to my liking....to red, to dark etc... I have mannered gold in my great room and golden fleece in my sunroom- all SW colors in the rooms beside my kitchen and they all go so well together everyone compliments the color scheme. Hope this helps. I will tell you this I must have gone through 25 of the color samples when we built our house (moving in next week) and those color samples are not exactly dead on...what I mean is the brandywine looked sooooo much better when the painters put it on the wall then the 12 inch test I did on the wall. I was hesitant at first as I mentioned but my husband was the decision maker for this color... I picked out the other 8 in the house. Try the visualizer with the Brandywine it is much better than the samples that you get that I was told are NOT REALLY Paint from the folks at the SW store. When I told them I was going to use all of the sample to do touch ups they suggested NOT to b/c it is made differently - go figure! BTW my floors are a cream porcelain...my cabinets are antique ivory (SW) I will be getting them chocolate glazed next month but my point it I too was going for a tuscan theme and I think I succeeded. GOOD LUCK!...See MoreNew house--need paint color help!
Comments (13)Lol@ingrid. Any desire to reimburse me for the seemingly billions I've spent on sample colors myself? Lol. Paint color is one of those, easy to say, not so hard to do things! But the two places to start aren't even what color a person likes but the light in the room and how a person wants to feel when they are in that space. Took me a couple of years and a collection of paint samples in my basement later to figure that out. Took me three samples to finally get the kitchen wall color right for the recent reno. I'm flattered, though, by your compliment. My broker called me last night to ask if I would go over to their new build some time soon and make paint color suggestions. She and her husband loved the BM Midsummer Night brown - an almost black brown - I had suggested for their kitchen in their old house, which was gorgeous and even I was blown away by how amazing it looked. For me, it's just fun!...See Moreneed help with SW paint color
Comments (0)We just purchased this house new and would like to have the yellow/gold color on top of house repainted. Looking for suggestions. The color we don’t like is lanyard, the trim is kilim beige and the bottom darker color is nuthatch. All SW paint colors. Any suggestions for a replacement color for the lanyard? Thank you...See MoreNeed a bit of help SW main house colors ASAP :-)
Comments (11)The cabinets are all being painted white or a shade of white-ish.... unfortunately I picked a carpet 7 months ago - and didn't think through the entire house of colors - hence why I am irritated with the developer designer for not even recommending this website to me - never heard of it until 6 weeks ago. I prefer sea glass tones of color and this is where a gray based carpet would have been a better option. But too late now....See Moredrjay71
