Need help with wall color!

12 years ago

Small facelift here, but would love opinions on wall color. Cabinets will be SW Antique White, ceiling will be SW Sea Salt. That's as far as I've gotten. I was thinking a bit of color would be nice (as evidenced by the "splashes" of test colors. Old color was sage, and would like something different. Help, anyone?

It looks like your heading toward the blue family. Aviary blue or rain drop blue might work well but if you would like to go toward a peach tone Conch shell is a nice option By the way your kitchen looks beautiful.

Thank you so much! I hadn't thought about peach, but that may work. My original thought was a warm yellow, but then thought a cooler pop of color. Who knows!!?? :-)

I think a warm yellow might make the house feel a little dull, but the peach color sounds like it will make the house look alive! :D

Have you thought about using a little bit deeper color on the Sea Salt paint chip, keeping the ceiling and walls in the same family? I'm afraid peach or yellow and sea salt might start to look a bit too pastel candy(ish).
