Picking Paints: What’s your Paint Palette of Choice?

March 27, 2010


We all know when it comes to home projects…purchasing paint can add up! I’ve had my share of choosing a paint color that ended up being a “what was i thinking” moment. But save some money by making a plan or having a photo for inspiration before you go buy the paint! here are some paint palette’s from marthastewart.com.

    I’m a cross between Sophisticated Neutrals and Natural Palette. I like calm, spa-like colors. I wish I was brave enough to be Bright and Bold but I would be lost trying to design around those colors, lol!

    i am sophisticated neutral and natural…mostly for versatility. If money were no object I would go for the bright and bold look. I just like to think resell on my house without repainting and also something that I can get new pillows for the couch or a new rug or new curtains and have something different without having to buy furniture or other expensive items!

    I’m a neutrals girl but I wish I were more brave! I love yellows and reds and purples and blues… but I’m so scared to use them. Ugghhh… I need to be more brave :-)

    I’m loving bright and bold but tend to decorate in sophisticated neutrals because it is what I call “safe”.

    I really, really want to branch out…I wish someone could MAKE me.

    i’m a combo of neutrals (grays mostly) and bold colors…. i love the versatility of have neutral walls and then decorating with really contrasted colors for a bold look.
