…top secret colors – part 1

June 5, 2012 by christen | 1 Comment

I think one of the top 10 questions I receive has nothing to do with chalk paint. Rather, it has to do with the paint on my walls!

I’ve finally dug out my color samples and am ready to share the top secret colors.

My house probably looked a bit like this when we were narrowing down interior colors.

Or maybe even like this:

Yes, that is my agile MIL way up there helping me with paint colors for the shutters!

I needed to have a bit of vision for the interior needless to say.

I love how Benjamin Moore makes these huge square paint sheets because you can actually tape them to the wall you are considering painting.

Now, I just need to place the appropriate square with the coordinating wall. Let’s start with the study.

Pismo Dunes is the color I used.

To be continued…I promise I will do all the main rooms you’ve asked about.

“Like” Blue Egg Brown Nest on Facebook. I’ll also be posting colors there….

    Thank you do much for sharing your paint colors and your style, your home is beautiful. My house has some similar colors ie Tapestry Beige and I have a grey blue as well but I need an in between beige brown like your Kitchen/Family room wall paint color. Is that Hot Springs Rock? Couldn’t see it posted anywhere!
