How do I choose a new paint color for an already colorful room?
Comments (2)You prime the whole thing with white primer. No more yellow reflections. No more wasted time. You can also buy a fan deck....See MoreI need help choosing a paint colour for the whole house.
Comments (6)Hi Lisa, Consider the market that you are trying to appeal to. Is this area being bought up by empty nesters? Are young families gobbling it up for the education district? Actually format a buyer profile and cater you decisions to that. If it's an older market, I recommend staying away from grey undertone colours. These colours can appear more bleak and drab to oder eyes. Being as the home has honey oak floors, my go to recommendation for clients with similar floors is Benjamin Moore's Balboa Mist. It is modern, fresh and is neutral enough to go with everything. Will you be painting the trim? Benjamin Moore's Chantilly Lace is a trim favourite of mine. It has enough of a blue undertone to make the white pop and looks lovely when paired with Balboa Mist. (don't let the blue reference scare you, it's a trained eye thing) Good Luck & Happy Painting!

Comments (9)When creating a whole home color palette you want the colors to flow from room to room, but you can change colors where ever there is an architectural break. So in your case, painting the bedrooms with a blue or a green and having the hallway a neutral is perfectly fine as long as the neutral in the hall works with the green or blue in the bedroom and that you have some of the neutral that is in the hall in the bedrooms. You should have a touch of blue or green or both in a piece of artwork in the hallway. Things shouldn't all match, they should coordinate. This is very much like picking clothing only you generally want much more subdued colors on walls because instead of covering just a few square feet you are covering a few hundred square feet and you don't want to be overwhelmed by the color....See MoreHelp choose guest room wall color
Comments (20)I would never start a room decor with window coverings and if you do not share the space with us we are working in the dark. White bedding , what is white ? The sheets the duvet what?? IMO guest rooms are where I think 5 star hotel space so if french country is what you like then find an inspiration pic and use that. Since you are sharing nothing with us to help you .There are 2 really pretty all white bedrooms in your idea books why not think that instead of pink for anything more than an accent color....See MoreDiana Bier Interiors, LLC
