Love your videos and learn so much from you! Question is do you paint the whole room including the ceiling or do the ceiling a bright white?

I have granite from the early 2000s, I have October Mist for my cabinets, and White Dove on the walls. Beautiful combo, even the granite doesn't look bad!

Thank you Kylie. This series about White Dove is very helpful. I'll soon be ordering a selection of Samplize white swatches of varying lrvs' before getting a tranche of more saturated hues. Certain hues in darker shades really do sing spectacularly along with certain whites. It's remarkable. What are the guidelines regarding ceilings?

Help please! My living room, dining room kitchen is all one big room! Living room, big window, facing south, dining room in the middle with big east window, and kitchen, window above sink facing north! Thinking of painting entire area White Dove, good choice or not? Biggest obstacle, what colour trim goes best with White Dove?

I love White Dove in our bathroom! We are considering using it for our living room, which is south facing and has tons of natural light/high ceilings. Would I have to worry about it washing out or is there something similar you could recommend? ❤

I have a north facing kitchen and recently had cabinets redone in "white Dove". I wish I had picked Swiss Coffee or something a bit warmer. It is pure stark white and when I go into kitchen I feel like "Whoa" and it is hard to look at. Maybe it is because I went from a brown maple to white Dove so it is a shock to what I have known. I know white kitchens are popular but I really am not loving it. Be careful this is a very white colour and I see no undertones.

Oh no, that's not good! It really IS a soft, warm white, but yes, it will look so much whiter than wood. If you grab a sample of BM Chantilly Lace and compare it to your cabinets, there shoudl be a notable difference for a brighter white (even Chantilly Lace isn't a TRUE bright white) and the softness of White Dove. Have you tried playing with your light bulbs to soften things - maybe down around 2700K??

What about BJ White Chocolate?
