One Paint Color For WHOLE house--anybody?
Comments (56)I am in the midst of choosing colors for my renovated bungalow and am trying to get colors to "flow" while staying with earth tones mostly but not doing the same color everywhere! Quite a challenge. I started with my trim (at the insistence of cabinet maker, who is making medicine cabinets with trim to match what's around the windows and doors) and chose BM "cotton balls" (hope I don't find that too white but I wanted something whiter than what I had before, which was Ivory White). The kitchen will have cherry cabinets, medium brown wood floors, soapstone counters, and the backsplash tiles are hand made 3x6 that vary from light green with gray to greenish-gray with darker gray edges - I chose Sebring White. The sunroom I'm thinking Vale Mist, the den off the sunroom maybe Vale Mist mixed at 25% (lots less natural light), the hallways Morning Dew, the living room off the hallway Coastal Fog, the dining room next to it (and leading back into the kitchen) Tapestry Beige (in part to pick up color in fabric of dining chair seat). Master BR I've chosen Silken Pine but mixed at 150% - it's to complement the bathroom tile, which is P&L P138 (of course I'm using the store's sample and who knows if the tile will actually be that color!). Trying to decide what do about ceilings. If my builder and architect get what they want, I'd use "ceiling white" but no way am I going to go with yet another white - it will either be Cotton Balls (in a different finish than the trim) or should I go with the room colors, perhaps mixed at 50%? Thoughts? TMI????...See MoreHelp re: cabinet stain and whole house color
Comments (4)Thanks everyone. Brutuses, that's not my kitchen (I wish!), that's my inspiration kitchen. You probably missed the first line of my post that says "I covet this kitchen". Lindy, to me the color seems very "cherry", not much chocolate. Monitor colors vary though so I'm not sure what you're seeing. Anyway, thanks for the info. I hadn't really thought about painted molding (I come from a family who LOVES woodwork and painting anything wood was a sin) but now that I've looked at a lot of pictures I see painted trim is common so I may have to give that serious consideration....See Morepaint color for great room with cherry floors

Comments (7)I am having the same dilemma, choosing between the two colors you mentioned. I don't want anything grey (difficult as its a trend right now) that would compliment my aspen ceiling, Do you have pics? which did you choose?...See MoreErica DiManna
