What's a great green for a bedroom
@spookyncutey45773 жыл бұрын
I 100% agree wanted my hallway In my small apartment to feel very moody so I opted for a green dark ivy color almost emerald but a little darker. I painted a huge wall arch and a circle with it and I out wall shelves inside the circle needless to say I'm absolutly in love ! I've just finished my living room and decided to go all neutral and beige and cream with rattan and wicker pieces but I am already feeling that its very bland so I've mixed up my own mint green its a very vibrant mint to go on the wall were the sofa will be ;) i will just add the same color cushions and get a new rug to give it a refresh and whole new look 😀 .

At first I was going to repaint but actually the color is calming and surprisingly neutral. Since the paint is in great shape I'm going with it. If I had to choose I guess my two favorites in the video are budding green and salamander. Love these videos.

It’s name is Milk Pail 8055. It’s been over 15 years, wonder if it’s still even good....) Still love it, gets tons of compliments. Looks great with both crisp white or very slightly softer white trim, our terracotta brick fireplace, and medium-dark wood furniture. One of my best paint choices ever, would totally do it again.

It's a small home so I think one color would be the best way to go. I don't like red, orange, yellow or purply undertones. Antique jade and guilford green look so calming to me (not for the entire house.) Maybe a bedroom and bathroom. I am buying an oatmeal color sofa so I would like the living room/dining areas to be neutral. My kitchen has those awful builder grade orangey oak cabinets. I am not sure if it was one of your episodes but a green was shown. I did try to find the episode. I always have a terrible time picking out paint but I know that I am not alone.
