I was fortunate to be able to rent my new home for two weeks prior to closing. The entire house was painted. I essentially used four colors in the home, except for my daughter's space. That is another story. I decided to lighten the palette compared to my last home. Here's what I used...
White Chocolate, Brittany Blue, Sandy White, and Shaker Beige ~ all from Benjamin Moore. I love the palette ~ soft and soothing. Of course I do have one accent color on my coffer ceiling in the family room...
Plymouth Brown again from Ben Moore.
I have off white glazed cabinets in my kitchen. The Sandy White on the walls in the family room relatively echo the color and well connect the two room. The kitchen is in the Brittany Blue.
You can see the Plymouth Brown peeking out at the top of the family room picture. I love the way it looks and feels.
White Chocolate is in the living, dining, and music room as well as my office.
The ceiling however in the living and dining room are in Brittany Blue. The tray ceiling in the dining room and cathedral ceiling in the music room have a lovely wallpaper with details in sand ~ literally ~ sand.
Shaker Beige, a paint color I use often, made it's way into the master bedroom, one guest room, and the lower level.
Brittany blue is in the second guest room.
The rooms are no longer empty at this point but I haven't taken any additional pictures yet.
What about Lauren's space? I'll save that for another post. Let's just say her colors deviate greatly from the master plan. She designed it all on her own. Stay tuned.
