I am sharing with you all my choices for house paint colors that I used!

Over the past few months we’ve slowly been painting the rooms in our house. So yes, it’s time!  A post that finally contains ALL of the cohesive house paint colors I used.

This post has been a long time coming since one of the most asked questions I get is “what is the paint color of your _____ room?” So yeah… I figured it was time to get organized and put everything in one place. Plus, If I forget I can always come back here as a reminder!

Honestly, I absolutely HATE picking out house paint colors. It’s a lot of pressure! While I have an idea of what I want in my head, sometimes it just doesn’t translate onto the walls depending on the lighting (whether artificial or natural).  Not only is it a lot of pressure, but expensive too! Do they mix gold flakes into this stuff or what!?

But I’ve learned from my mistakes in the past and now absolutely love the timeless paint colors in our home. So here we go!  Let’s talk PAINT.

House paint colors that coordinate with the names.

      My favorite neutral color is Revere Pewter by Benjamin Moore. It’s a beautiful mix between gray and beige, but brings a wonderful lightness into your home!

    I have an open kitchen, dining room, living room and sunroom. Would you paint all of these rooms the same color? Accent wall? Keep hallway different color?

    Would like to have a whole house color scheme; that works well with revere pewter from benjiman Moore. May 3 or 4 different neutrals.
