These Paint Colors Are Having a Comeback in 2023!

[@jennifersmith9841]

Bring on the warm earthy colors. This makes me happier.

[@kaylaledouxgary2200]

So tired of gray!! Glad for the change!!!

[@AnabolicSpudsman]

I’m so glad I found this channel! People have treated me like I’m crazy to want to move far away from sterile white. I feel seen 😅

[@arleneg1271]

Totally agree....ready for some color!!

[@ilikecontent2327]

For sure.. There are so many channels that push the black, white, and gray shades or the same old designs that it is refreshing to see color again. Although I have always used color in my home... 😁

[@robynpope3433]

When I had a painter come in for a quote last year he told me I was the first client he had had in a long time who did not want grey or white

[@kelly3560]

I can fall into the autumnal colors.lol . I do enjoy the shift to color.

[@deborahcoyne1894]

I am also loving deep greens lately. Connects us to nature.

[@thepaintpeople]

Me too!

[@elenadarling4697]

The red and the green were beautiful. Great job! Thank you! ❤

[@g.970]

I only went gray 3 years ago and I’m not giving it up yet. Wish I’d never gone from warm to gray but I’ve invested too much money in the change. I’m going to quit watching trends. Last month I painted my powder room and Butler’s pantry with SW Urbane Bronze and I love it. At least now the tile and granite in my kitchen and bathrooms, on the warm side, will be back in. I just can’t afford to tear out my three year old taupe carpet. At least it’s not a cold gray. Where I do have white walls they are a warm white. I painted my fireplace wall with SW Tricorn Black and love it. Not going to change.

[@lindamatus4429]

Urbane Bronze isa gorgeous color!!

[@ilikecontent2327]

Yeah! Color is back! It never left my home... Yes it is harder to design with color, but it is sure more fun! Just dive in to the deep end! 😁

[@LQOTW]

Gold - I love the fall trees with yellow gold leaves - especially on sunny days. Glad to see that last of the white/whites. When I was a kid my mom painted our (my sister's and my) bedroom with white that had such a cold tone it looked almost light blue. In our North-facing bedroom. In Minnesota. Brrrrrrrr! I'd like to use Pink Ground in my bedroom with a lovely dark, bittersweet brown accent color.

[@martinmabry5460]

Farrow and Ball Hay. Beautiful in my den.

[@nancym5341]

I SO WANT COLOR TO RETURN TO OUR LIVES!! Thanks Peter for your enthusiasm and advice Ps: gotta love Nick!

[@lisbetsoda4874]

I love these colours. And it is funny how things just go in cycles.

[@norinemueller4588]

Thank you love the warmer whites myself so over the grey

[@timtreadway6062]

Painted over my gray walls with accessible beige 7036 Sherwin-Williams for 2023 ❤ love it!

[@michellegodfrey4114]

Please do a video on burnt brown orange! something that is dark and cozy and one that doesn't mind being in the same house as greens , blues and neutrals. Something earthy and warm, like a warm cozy campfire in the woods. Orange is hard to get right!

[@emmalavenham]

I can appreciate that the trend is more toward bancha (or BM Georgian green) but I’m still loving the lichen and the green smoke - classic blue grey greens that are just so versatile and timeless

[@marybethmaloyG]

Yes! Green smoke is such a beautiful color!

[@MaLuDramatic]

I have greige walls and I love them so much. Done by the previous owners. It’s so versatile and goes well with decor I like.

[@vickywright4623]

Do you happen to know the color name?

[@kattat919]

I absolutely love the pinky beige color you showed!!!

[@crystalline9098]

I love sudberry yellow for a front door!

[@laurabfromvt6197]

If you are looking for a red I can recommend Benjamin Moore Mexican Tile. I've had it in my bedroom in the 3 foot space below the chair rail for a few years now. It's a red with some brown in it, and with an LRV of 30 it's dark enough so it doesn't scream pink, but yet not super dark red.

[@karmacounselor]

Thank you! @7:20 when you are saying the selvedge blue lets more light in, now I realize why the norwegian blue is like that...in northern places we need as much light as we can get...

[@pman2916]

I've been into "Selvedge blue" for a few years now. It's my favourite colour and will definitely make it my kitchen colour when we move into our new home mid this year!

[@victory2714]

I’ve loved shoji White by SW. I wanted a white that had some depth to it. In my north facing walls, it’s just gorgeous and looks amazing all throughout the day.

[@farmchick1464]

Great list, especially you pointing us towards Autumn colors!

[@teresamiller5412]

We just had our home fully painted. As I talked to people they said oh which grey? I said no grey, I want/ need color! We choice SW Morning Sun and LOVE IT. So cheery!

[@Alwaysinvisable]

I love grey. It’s my neutral, instead of brown, tan, but I mix color with it.

[@prairiepalmetto9378]

Pink Ground is gorgeous. It isn’t mauve, which I abhor.

[@Dev_KG]

F&B also makes its archive colors available on request -- Clunch is such a beautiful light beige that used to be everywhere years ago, and Octagon Yellow is softer than Sudbury for people who find that overwhelming.

[@emmalavenham]

Thank you for letting us know. That is fantastic

[@marybethmaloyG]

Loved clunch! Thank you for reminding me.

[@fayejordan175]

People should do colors THEY love! I like Revere Pewter and I’m not changing! I even like darker gray colors. I love Pure White by Sherwin Williams. Gray will always be In because of marble! I think people shouldn’t worry about trends!!! People can do all these colors you mentioned with gray if they want (pillows etc) and save money! Soft white cabinets will never go out of style. Colors which are not neutral are what go in and out.

[@jackiewatkins521]

Loving that green, we are in the middle of putting up panneling in our lounge and are painting it this colour and it looks amazing .

[@gageiger]

This is music to my ears!! I LOVE these colours. 🥰 However, I wish you wouldn't refer to only F&B colours. We can't get F&B here and it is way too expensive for most folks to buy and have shipped. I would love it if you would do a follow up video of sorts and give both S&W and BM colours as alternatives. Or perhaps link to a blog that does this in more detail. Pretty please??? 😁

[@jgill721]

No worries. SW can match colors from another company’s palette. They all can. So it’s great to become familiar with a new color pallete. F&B for me too. Since I’m in the same boat. Not available locally.

[@gageiger]

@@jgill721 Where can we go to get paint chips though to pick and have matched?

[@jgill721]

@@gageiger all F&B colors will be in SW computer file. So they will make it up no problem. Depending on color you may be limited to a certain product is all. If you pick a color, they can’t match. That would be the exception and not the rule. I haven’t come across it yet. Far as paint chips, that you’re gonna have to order a color deck from fuller &ball.

[@hokeypokeypots]

I leave the 'super deep, super saturated' colors to accents in the room like throws, pillows, drapes, bedding, rugs or pictures and paint my walls in lighter, warmer, more neutral colors that I won't get tired of. Since my rooms are pretty large ..with high ceilings and plenty of natural light, more vivid colors on walls can tend to look garish in bright daylight...and nothing makes you want to repaint more than a garish look.

[@tracytuten5116]

I LOVE BEIGE! I never jumped on the gray train. My home was beige with red & gold accessories scattered around for the past 18 years. I don't follow trends, stick with classics I love.

[@ninabalekic1431]

lovely colours.

[@marv730]

I'm in the process of going grey and blue . (Great Graphite, Welded Iron and Undersea) from behr. As long as you take your time to choose and love your choices ,with proper lines and preparation, it'll always be trending.

[@toneil8470]

I'm loving the colors. Love the golden leaves in the fall. Would love to have a gold color like that. Thanks for sharing.

[@trishemerald2487]

Lol I've had a match for sudbury yellow in every corner of my house (even the closets) since 2013. The irony! I loved it at first but it's time for a chance in my case - I clicked on this video specifically to find a colour to replace it. That said, I will say that it's hard to find another colour that can cover a home so well across all rooms. It's neither masculine nor feminine, not too light but not too dark. Love your channel - fellow Canuck here. :)

[@reggie9334]

Good job 👍

[@betsysanders4524]

Oh I love the Sudbury Yellow…it might be my new dining room color. I’m leaning toward the warm off white for my moldings as well because my living room is a saturated color, which the person at the paint counter SERIOUSLY warned me against. “It will make your room look small…blah blah blah” They were completely WRONG!! I have high ceilings & my LR is AWESOME but the moldings are still the stained wood because I can’t find the right creamy off white until now. Lol Thanks!

[@jujusmom1508]

Perfect timing. Bathroom renovation scheduled for March.

[@irishb9993]

[@janniebee9501]

I love ALL of these. Thank you!!

[@sarahterry2140]

Just did Pink Ground in one room which has had Pointing trim for ages; Hague Blue forever!!

[@rlin2648]

I think earth tones cannot be overtaken. Earth tones are just so soothing, elegant, calming and classic, etc. I consider beige an earth tone. Leathery mottled browns, greens of all shades! Earth tones rock. Pink ground looks nice and would accompany earth tones well.

[@lindamatus4429]

I just painted my master bath in SW Pavilion. Beautiful neutral and warm. Vintage-look oil rubbed bronze faucets with other accents of rich, muted gold on light fixtures and switchplates. Chose a muted spring-green tile for shower. I don’t like sterile bathrooms.

[@momcatx2]

I've been kicking around the idea of painting my house. Except for a few rooms, the whole thing is an old Behr color, Calm Air. I LOVE it but thought it was probably outdated. Turns out last year it was, this year it's in. LOL way to hang in there walls!

[@kyriacosandeliannaskouroup1829]

Please do a video on these colours but in sherwin Williams as we dont have f&b here for the whole house. 😊

[@jeanniestaller797]

When the tre ds that you love pass you by and the trends that you already have come back again, you are ready for a change. I vote for gray.

[@Jeremiy2]

The warm browns work best if using a texture paint method, trust me. Beige is great for bathrooms, and porcacelin..(bad spelling, I know)...accesories match the white already their, AKA countertops, toilet, shower stall as in my house. Older homes need exploration, find that pile of boards used in the floor to create trim and more! Stains are hard to match up, and need not be or even done most of the time. Busy rugs are softened in busy places, like under a table, while nuetral faded patterns for high traffic areas, no carpeting, it is not back nor will anytime soon. Any fake wood on the floor is a bad idea. Use fake wood, as I did wood print contact paper for a border in the bathroom. Decorate for you, I have found childhood memories from long lost relatives and grabbed them up and now they endorn my home. My home is warmly lit, bright in the right areas and the only place all white is behind the cupboards on the walls of my kitchen, for I like a clean looking kitchen, since I do cook for others. Orange shaded celephane for flourecent light fixtures a must, as well as computer screens! The difference is awestruckness!!! I am not a pro-decorater, I am an educated guesser and creative by default gay ventruliquist....go figure. lol, love your advice and your fans are the best! Remember don't buy what you can supply, and always take free paint!!! No shame in posting notices in public.

[@JerseyGirl50]

I don’t follow trends. I use colors that speak to me and make me happy

[@helenapeculiar]

Kitchen cabinets in Bancha, brown wooden counter tops and walls in Pink Ground ... I think I just planned the whole color concept for restyling my kitchen by watchign one single random KZbin video from 7 months ago.

[@eleanoreagly4844]

The name on the can is wheat, it is a cream color, not white, not beige, so very easy to decorate with. It is warmer than any white, A move is in the plan and I will use it again. Love the blue for bathroom. That green you mention is what I used back in the early 70s. (Never liked avocado)

[@jayceewedmak9524]

Hahaha - I have the two paint slips one gets from the store sitting right beside me that I picked out a week ago - of the blue and green you just mentioned. Feeling good about my choices lol 👍

Grey is still around in just more taupe undertones. It’s funny when designers need to create content and push their pocketbooks to transition colors. Oh and modern farmhouse is going no where. Contracts for houses are backed up so houses have been underwritten for years with specific contracts and specs ordered. Now if you said get the ugly tvs off beautiful fireplaces I’d throw up my arms and say YES…put up real art and not a fake abyss.
