Choosing a Paint color for the Dining Room
I actually have the toughest time choosing a paint colour.
I normally know the path I'm headed in, however then get lost in a pile of paint samples.
My dining room is a dark tan color, and I knew I wanted to go lighter, so I went to Lowe's and picked out a few sample paints. See below.
The far Left is BM Cloud 9 ( Lowe's usually does not get a true match on Benjamin Moore colors in the sample size, they can match well in a larger size, but I have found the samples to be off)
The center coloration is called, Bamboo by Olympic and the a ways Right is known as, Sidewalk by way of Valspar.
At first, I turned into drawn to the "Bamboo" shade and painted one of the walls in it.
Here it is on the left side, the original tan color on the right.
I like how much lighter it is. I also like how it flows nicely with the kitchen color, which is BM Horizon Gray.
I then concept I'd attempt out the "Sidewalk" pattern on the full wall.
Which I additionally like plenty.
So now I'm torn between the two colours.
Sidewalk or Bamboo. . . . Which is your favorite?
Below are the two colors together, and actually they look good together, but I can't have them both.
I'm headed to Lowe's tomorrow to pick up the paint. I think I know which one I like best, but your opinions may change things.
Thanks on your assist,
Emily
