We painted our sunroom Sea Salt by Sherwin Williams. It used to be a dark almost army green. I need to figure out what bedding/cushions to put on a natural wicker daybed and chair/ottoman.
Do I paint the wicker white?
The room leading into it/open concept is Revere Pewter.
Do I do the same material on the bed as the chair/ottoman? Different?
I like the idea of grey/seafoam or seafoam/salmon/light terracotta for a pop of color

What Sherwin Williams colors are you buying? :)
Comments (28)we painted our whole first floor SW Blonde. There is so much light variations in the rooms, it looks like we used different colors. It was easier to paint everything the same. Now i wont forget what color we used, and the color variation due to lighting differences is enough so its not boring. We love the color, it is very versatile and looks good in all light. Its just a nice neutral backdrop with color. If you like BM Moore paints, we used Flowering Herbs in the hallways upstairs..it is a beautiful taupey green and looks nice where its visible to the the SW Blonde. In the past, Ive used alot of BM Bar Harbor Beige, which is my all time favorite neutral beige....See MoreNeed a Beige to Pair with SW Sea Salt
Comments (25)So we went with the Maison Blanche/Sea Salt combo, and it looks fantastic! I will try to post pics. tomorrow. I have to say that as much as I absolutely love how these two colors turned out, they look almost nothing like the poster board samples I painted and held up all over the place! The Maison Blanche was lighter than I expected, which turned out to be a good thing and really helps to lighten the room. I had read what a chameleon color Sea Salt can be but was still surprised to find that it reads much more blue than my samples, which read green. Paint colors can be crazy! Thank you all again for the wonderful tips and suggestions. And extra special thanks to Tibbrix for introducing me to my beige winner, Maison Blanche. :) Darcy, great question about the accent wall. Initially, I wanted to paint the entire area in Sea Salt. After much consideration, hubs and I feared that it wouldn't be neutral enough for us because there is so much white trim in the whole area to make the color pop. And...he and I are not very daring. This is the first time in 20 years of marriage that we've had any paint color in our family room other than grey or beige. ;) We actually ended up doing the family room accent fireplace wall in Sea Salt as well as the area around the white kitchen cabinets (which is at the opposite end of the entire area.) I was nervous that it would break things up too much, but it really turned out beautifully. I bet your downstairs looks amazing. Maybe next time I can be braver!...See MoreNew Paint color for sunroom
Comments (21)Thanks for all the input. I got samples of most of the paints suggested and some that were similar. We decided to go with the color below. Thanks for pointing is in the right direction. I already finished the job but I'll take pictures in the daylight tomorrow....See MoreSherwin Williams / Benjamin Moore coordinating delima
Comments (3)Why not find some bedding with the blue like the bathroom and paint the bedroom the same .. Or just do really nice white bedding and fluffy white towels in the bathroom.Make sure that toilet seat is removed before showing.This is woodlawn blue in a bedroom IMO a much more cohesive look for a master suite....See MoreMelissa Dukovac

I would find pattern for seat cushions first, area rug then lastly decide if you want to paint the wicker.
I personally would not.

4 years agoFor a sun room, I think you could go with beachier accent colors like coral, white, grass green, and yellow. I like the idea of white wicker in a sun room, but you don't have to. Some inspiration photos:
