For my living/dining room! I have been looking and looking and I am having such a hard time finding the perfect paint color! Suggestions? I prefer ben/moore paint BUT am open to anything... Thanks so much! I really want to post an inspiration picture but everytime I try my computer freezes up on me! | |||

Since I am having trouble uploading my inspirational picture here is the link! Any idea what color the paint is???? I have the same color couches and just LOVE the color combo!!! http://pinterest.com/pin/73042825177202214/ | ||||

The link option does not work. They did some work on this board some time back and have NOT fixed all the 'bugs' with it! So, post your link right into the message and it will show up.

I can see it, but it doesn't say what the color is. There's a lot of BM blue/grays out there. I would go to the BM store and pull a bunch of their samples and take them home. What's in that picture may not look the same at your home. I used BM Nantucket Fog in my bedroom which is a really pretty blue/gray, although it looks more blue than gray in my room. Good luck.

Here is the inspiration picture. That is a beautiful wall color. Looks great with that color furniture too. ![]() | ||||

See if you can print out the pic and then go to the paint store and try and color match it. Most paint stores will color match for you, so if you found a color at say Walmart (NEVER buy paint from there), just take the paint chip to Ben Moore and have them color match it.

I would take any available fabrics from the room or inspiration pieces (artwork, for example) along to the BM store and confirm that the paint samples harmonize and don't clash with them. Then, you can paint the sample in the room to check them in your own light/exposure or paint sample boards. It usually takes me several paint samples and a couple of trips so good luck - | ||||

Here are two to consider: http://www.benjaminmoore.com/e...color/mountsaintanne http://www.benjaminmoore.com/e...int-color/beachglassThis message has been edited. Last edited by: arepo, | ||||

The closest I can come up with is Stratton Blue HC-142, but its so difficult going off of a monitor. It appears to be a Blue Green - very pretty room | ||||

Try SW 6205 Comfort Gray http://www.sherwin-williams.co...rs-by-family/SW6205/ ~Like sands through the hourglass ~So are the days of our lives | ||||
