Paint Fantasies

Really the only thing I need to decide for the house quickly is paint. The house obviously hasn't been painted since the 90's so it's a bit dingy and definitely not our style. (you can tell from the picture I posted earlier).

I've known for a while the type of palette I'd put in our future home. Neutrals with gray tones, my favorite. I whipped up this little board during the weekend to get a plan put together:

All paint colors listed are Benjamin Moore:


Just a little taste of what I'm dreaming up.

We haven't had the inspection yet, but I thought I'd jump the gun and post this anyway. If something bad happens and we don't get THIS home, these are still some of my favorites.

  2. my whole house (minus 1 room) is painted ben moore's silver satin.
    it is the perfect shade of pale pale chalky gray. in warm afternoon light it reads white, but mostly it reads pale chalky gray. i love it.

  3. paint was THE hardest decision for me, too. i was never planning on buying a home when i did, so i was ill-prepared for having to select colors in a hurry. that is really the worst!
    anyhow, i love your palette!

  9. what a lovely palette of fresh colors! I painted my bedroom and bath a Benjamin Moore color called Nantucket Fog (it's bluish, with a hint of gray). Four years later and I still love it!

  12. camouflage is a great color. I also love lancaster whitewash. It has sort of what I call a "fresh lily" style to it. a little green hint.
    good luck. hope this one is yours.
