Help with wall color please
last year
Hello! We recently painted our living room an off white color- it used to be a greige. Now, I’m wondering if we should have went slightly darker.
I’m including the before and after pics, along with the color that I’m considering changing it to. TIA!

Comments (34)Have you looked at Sherwin-Williams Chip It thing? It "instantly turns any image into a collection of up to 10 Sherwin-Williams paint colors." I modified your image a bit and tried it and got this: At the bottom of the chip, there's an edit tab. When you select it, some other colors appear. (I guess that makes "the up to 10 colors.) This one shows the chip after I clicked edit but before I did anything else: If I would have selected any of those colors to replace the original ones, you'd see the names of the paint colors. I think the aubergine idea and the two last colors at the bottom on my second picture would be good with your other colors, etc., but use a blue that's more green to agree with your stove.

Comments (6)none. 1 is too beige looking, 2,3,4 are too taupe, and 5 is too gray. the taupe would look like this and the bluer/gray like this. personally I don't care for either. soft white looks nice. this one has a slight pink undertone which works w/the flooring this one is SW Light French Gray soft sage greens looks great with hickory Most of these tones would look great w/your flooring a good, light griege is Pale Oak, BM. It seems to work w/everything. shown here: you could also try BM Smoke embers. it has the slight pink undertone...See MoreWall Paint Color Help Please
Comments (27)The dancing bear, the lamp, the pictures, and Turner mirror are my choices. Everything else you see came with the condo (purple end table) when I bought it. This is a work in progress and any suggestions are welcome. I'm pleased with the color, and the picture doesn't really do it justice, but after it was on I realized that it was very close to the color at my previous home which my ex-wife and I picked out. Small trade-off I guess. I'll think of her every day until I'm dead anyway, so what's a little wall color reminder? I'm not taking her back (well, maybe for a night or two) and I'm not repainting. Funny how these things work out....See MoreRelated Professionals
