ATTENTION: Benjamin Moore Lovers!

Help,  I need something that will look good with shelburne buff.  I've painted my family room this color and I love it.  I will be painting the living room with this color and need a color that matches/contrasts well with shelburne buff for my dining room.  I just picked up paint samples and I'm feeling overwhelmed.

I found this blog in my online mission to find colors for my home. I love Benjamin Moore paints and definetly will go with them. I have such a beautiful home but no sense design or color although I have been able to identify preferences I have such a fear of painting in color. It takes a lot of encouragement for me to go for it. Don't know if anyone might have advise but I would be so open to  it and willing to post all before and after's and promote the site.

I don't see how to post photos here so here is a link to my spaces on my blog.

I have put up Revere Pewter in a room with limited lighting, there is an adjacent hall with almost no natural light, I was thinking about carrying the Revere Pewter into the hall, but at full strength, it's too dark. Does anyone know (or have a picture) of what Revere Pewter would look like at 75% in very low light? The hall looks directly on to a 17 foot wall of North Creek Brown. In the low light I'm finding green's are not working in general, I've tried a few whites that were too light and really did nothing for the space. I'm looking at Edgecomb gray, but it's really not impressing me so much. I have a bit of a design dilemma..... I should also say directly on the other side of the  hallway is a James River Gray at 125% strength. Maybe I should have gone with something other than Revere Pewter, but it seems to look good.... any suggestions for this hallway or the strength of the Revere Pewter?

We bought a house that all the trim in it is painted Revere Pewter.  I struggled with what to do for about a year, change the trim or work with it.  Benjamin Moore Indian Rain is on the living room and bath walls now and it is beautiful!  The rest of the house is done in White Dove on the walls but am going to perk up the guest bath with a vibrant color.  Any suggestions?

Hello,

I will be painting my family room soon, any advice would be greatly appreciated. The room has a cathedral ceiling and the fire place wall is completely covered with brown-red bricks. The carpet will be replaced with natural oak wood floors. I was thinking of BM Monroe Bisque, as my main color and BM Chocolate Truffle, as the accent color wall. The accent colored wall adjoins the kitchen (sage green and cream) and dining room (sky blue). Also, I was debating if I should paint the ceiling in either BM Frappe or BM Mayonnaise. I would like to stay with a country type of feel. Thanks!

I love this site and wish I would have discovered it months ago. I am new to this WIDE world of color consults and decorating, but am hooked! We bought house with a very open concept floor plan. We're fairly conservative and are considering selling the house in 5-10 years, so I'm looking for safe, but tasteful options.

We have chosen greens and neutrals for our downstairs. Cabinets/Trim are White Chocolate, countertops are New Venetian Gold, Brazilian cherry hardwoods, foyer will be Grant Beige (unless persuaded otherwise)...Other adjoining rooms are berkshire beige AC-2 and Hampshire Gray (HC-101). Now to finalize the kitchen/living room color. We are tentatively going with Clarksville Gray (HC-102), but I'm worried that I might tire of so much green. (I'm starting to feel like my color palette is straight camouflage! :) ) Any recommendations for alternatives for the kitchen/living room that are similar to Clarksville Gray, would look great with Grant Beige, and would compliment NVG granite and White Chocolate trim?

Hi, I have biscotti paint on basement walls with beige sectional couch and cream colour ledge stone fireplace, what colour should I paint basement floor, trim is off white.

I have Grecian Green in a hallway with Simply White doors and trim and am about to pull paneling off the living room walls, which connects to it. I either have to choose a different color, or stick with Grecian Green for that room, too, and put a chair rail and a different color below it. Maybe making boxes of a third color, which I have seen in some on-line images, but I am clueless about coordinating color. The furniture is beige leather.

Any suggestions?
