Your color selections are absolutely beautiful!!!!

11 years ago

We are building our home in Oklahoma and of all the millions of pictures I've seen on HOUZZ the colors in this home appeal to me the most! So warm and serene. I'm taking notes, SW sea salt, SW ivoire, and a match of Miller sugar dust; did you use sugar dust on your trim throughout the home? Are the ceilings a percentage of the wall colors? Any other colors in the home that compliment these colors?
Thank you for your willingness to share, you get 10 stars in my book, this house is a dream!

Congrats on building your new home! It is such a fun process. The ceiling and the trim are the same color, just flat finish for the ceiling and semi-gloss for the trim. As for complementary colors, we tried to pull soft tones you might find on the beach, creamy yellows, soft blues, some tans. Sherwin-Williams has excellent coordinating booklets that help you pull complementary hues together if you are having a hard time.

Hi. I've got the sherwin williams coordinating book that includes sea salt, and sw describes it as grey with blue undertones. this pic looks like the perfect pale green. i'm confused!

Were you able to pick up a paint sample while you were there? It's definitely more of a soft green than grey. As with all paints, buy a quart and put a little swatch on your wall to see if it agrees with you. Paints always look different depending on the light of your room. Best of luck.
