How’d it turn out? We are thinking of using it

Mostly I go with a white or light-light beige tone on the ceilings, as my walls tend to be darker (or cedar such as our current house). However, in our first house, many years ago, we went against advice and reason, followed our youthful hearts, and painted the family room ceiling a warm turquoise. Added a white ceiling fan. Room was modern southwestern, with sand, white, black, and turquoise colors. It was stunning and so different. Later, we rather quickly put that house on the market, planning to repaint that ceiling the following weekend. Too late! The first folks who walked in bought it, saying that the turquoise ceiling made them smile. Who would have thought? I still wouldn't recommend such an odd color (for ceilings OR walls) for the resale market, but if a color makes YOU happy while you live there, I say go for it.

Well I came home with eight gallons of paint yesterday so I'll be busy for a while. I went with Feather Down for the walls and an off-white for the ceiling. I do like creamier ceilings I have with the mid and darker color walls in my house but glad I'm changing it out where I'm using the new color. Eventually everything else will transition and change too (not to grays). The sample looks good but hope I still find it light enough when I'm finished. I wanted something with color because I think my house needs it but wanted to push it as light as I thought I could go. It's definitely void of looking yellow and more neutral which is what I want. I really like SW Aria Ivory but I just think it's too light and going to look like I moved in and didn't paint. I'm the most excited to get rid of the gold in my bedroom. I want to change my bedding (plaids/houndstooths) and only pull it out in the winter because it feels off/wrong all of a sudden to use it year round. The Feather Down color is in the bedroom thankfully. I know I should have waited until I figured out what I'm doing with new bedding but I just can't see past the gold. What I used to really love about the color feels almost suffocating now. We had a good run but time for a change!

I am a fan of bright white like Chantilly Lace or Super White BM. I found that going with a crisp white you can combat any yellow look. But, sometimes it is the lighting that can create a muddy or a yellow look. Look into the lighting in your space both natural and electrical lights. Here is a link to check out...
