I'm making myself crazy choosing white paint

5 years ago

last modified: 5 years ago

We just bought a condo at the beach and we are having it painted and new flooring done. We chose a greige walnut lvp for the floor because that looks good next to the kitchen tile. Now

I need a color for the walls. I am using SW Sea salt in 1 bedroom and the bathrooms and I wanted to use a warm white in the living area and other bedrooms. I would like to use the same trim throughout. We bought the place furnished and will be updating it as budget allows. I just bought the end tables, blue pillows and lamps and I want to use blues to decorate. Will BM White Dove work? Any suggestions would be so appreciated!

We did Alabaster which is a warm white on walls and cabinets and we love it

You can use Spare White as coordinating color for Sea salt.

We also did bedrooms/baths in Sea Salt. Alabaster for Trim/Doors/Cabinets/Ceilings and Crushed Ice for Walls but you could do Alabaster there too. Best.

White Dove is a beautiful color. I don't think you can go wrong using it throughout for trim and doors. If you wanted to add a bit of depth, you could go with a very light neutral for the walls - maybe BM Pale Oak or Ashwood - whatever looks good with your floors. With a blue and white color scheme, it can be nice to introduce some warmth - either in the paint color or with baskets, sisal/jute rugs, rattan, wood tones, etc.

If another decision is too many right now, keep it simple and go white! It will look great either way!

Pale Oak is beautiful. I need to get to Benjamin Moore to get a sample. I love the idea of bringing in neutrals in baskets and a seagrass rug. Thanks!

I would do sw crushed and sw alabaster for your trim. I have this combo in my bathroom so pretty. Crushed ice will give that barely there color without going white. It is almost white.
