    So exciting! Make sure to remove any wallpaper, outlet plates, and wipe down the walls.


    are you asking if 1 color for both spaces works? It Can definitely work.


    Do do you have any questions?

      I want a color that will look good with those oak cabinets that have darkened over the years. The family room has same color cabinets. Getting new window treatments and furniture. Thank you so much for your input.

  • Sure, why not? Just pick a color that makes you happy or a neutral backdrop for your furnishings and decor.

    If you are asking for color suggestions, you have a very neutral base to work with. You could really go with any color. I would go to the store and get a whole bunch of sample cards. Tape them up all over the place. Check the cards at different times of the day and in different kinds of weather (sunny, overcast stormy). Eliminate them until you have a couple left, then get sample pints and paint spots in different parts of the rooms. Then do the same thing as before, until you have just one. Test all different kinds of colors, you never know what will make your rooms pop.

    I painted a rich pumpkin color..and I HATE IT !!! Only one time of the day it looks pretty..otherwise it looks muddy.......awful. Think carefully on this color...not for everyone.

    paint color is the easiest thing in your room to change. Or at least the cheapest once you invest in window treatments and furniture. Do you have any pictures of the styles you are leaning toward?


    Pottery barn always lists the Sherwin Williams color they use in their magazines. It’s a good place for inspiration even if you aren’t ordering from them.


    If you are looking for a complete refresh of the space... I would move the cabinets to another useful place in your house And install the tv on the wall. indont Mean to discourage you at all. Please ask as many questions as you want.
