Have you ever wondered why blue is a traditional color for porch ceilings? Called "Haint Blue," some believe it wards off evil spirits or helps banish mosquitos. Still others believe a light blue porch ceiling reminds them of the sky or believe it has a very calming effect.
See specific haint blue colors, learn its history, and get the opportunity to purchase samples and acquire the specific formula so you too can have the perfect haint blue porch ceiling!
