I love the lighter tone on these stones. It's very close to the color I carried through the entire upstairs. It really is very easy to live with, but takes a couple coats to cover white walls.

Thanks acm. I was looking at warm grays but couldn't find a shade at Benjamin Moore.

The wall is floor to ceiling and spans two floors along the stairs. Painting it would be a bigger project than I'm looking to take on at this time.

If anyone has any paint shade suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Thanks Beverly!! I'll have to get some samples and give them a try.

What are your thoughts on a warm gray or beige? Any shades that could work?

A blue or green would also go good with the stone color.

I'm sure a warm grey or beige could work. I don't know why the boulder wall can't be touched, but until it's addressed there will probably continue to be issues with the room.

I found this pic and think its colors would work well in your space, though I might substitute the yellow for more of a cream color.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I'm looking for a wall color in the browns family. I currently have middlebury brown from BM on the walls, and it's a bit dark for the room. It's a nice sized living room that doesn't get a huge amount of sunlight. So I'm looking for something lighter than middlebury brown but darker than a light beige.

As a side note, I also put capillano bridge from BM on the wall too. That was a little too light. So definitely something darker than capillano.

Hoping someone can help!

Thanks!!

You could hire a faux painter to paint the stones a different color but to still look like stone. Another option is to sheet rock over top half of stones.

If you have a BM color you like but is too dark, can't you ask them about making it lighter strength? I feel like I've seen people suggesting that kind of thing here before. I'd ask the paint folks about it, anyway, before going too nuts trying to find other colors.

I feel your pain, though. We have a wall like that in the living room and it is driving me nuts.
