Help on paint color

11 years ago

Hi,

I will be repainting my master bedroom. It is a south facing room, with a single window in an alcove (so the window isn't really directly in the room). The carpet is a pale lavender grey, and I am struggling with paint color that doesn't turn either neon yellow or full on purple. I'm trying to find a stone (grey/cream/beige) color - very light with a little bit of warmth, that won't fight the purple, or enhance it. I've tried BM's Balboa Mist at full strength, and it went full on purple, and while BM Palace White at 50% isn't awful, it is looking very close to white.

I seem to be getting this completely wrong, and no matter what I pick, it changes completely when it hits the wall. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Anne
