Choosing the Right Color of Paint for your Home

With all the color hues available, it can be overwhelming to pick the right color for your space. It’s not just about picking a color for one room, but choosing colors that will create a visual flow as you walk around your entire home.

An easy way to start choosing your paint color scheme is by examining your favorite decorative accent piece. Whether it is a rug, a painting, or a pillow, the colors in this item will help lead you in the right direction of paint colors.

Consider using paints from the same color swatch. For example, paint your family room a neutral beige and then paint the adjacent room a couple of shades lighter or darker. By adding different shades of the same color, you will create depth and unity throughout your home. Or, consider a bright accent wall that will be the feature of each room.

To test a color you are interested in, Sherwin Williams has a very handy tool on their website called ColorSnap that will allow you to see the colors in action.
