Trends may come and go, but a good neutral will always stick around. We are loving all the warmer versions coming back to the forefront. They just feel so cozy and happy to be in. Find some of our favorites from Sherwin Williams and Benjamin Moore in the graphic below. As a general rule, it's not a good idea to mix one brand's color into another brand's paint. Don't try to mix a Benjamin Moore color into paint from Lowe's. Chances are, you're going to be disappointed. The brands all have slightly different base formulas so that perfect white, just might turn out cream. Or that black, could have a tint of blue. It's always better to choose your color from the brand you intend to purchase. Which finish should you pick? There's a little bit of personal choice a little bit of professional advice in this one. Flat paint hides mistakes- if your drywall isn't perfect or you're a novice painter- this might be your go to. It's common to use on ceilings as well since it doesn't have any reflective sheen. It's more difficult to clean, but easy to touch up. Eggshell/Satin are the most commonly used wall finishes. The slight sheen makes it washable, but you'll see touch ups much more than if you use a flat paint. Semi-gloss is perfect for doors and trim. Easy to clean, but the sheen is a bit much for most wall applications. Need help choosing a paint color? We offer in person and virtual paint consultations!
