THE NEUTRALS
OPEN LIVING SPACE
The walls in the living room, dining room, kitchen, and hallways, are all the same, since all of those spaces are open to each other. I painted them that way back in 2008 for a soft, neutral, contiguous effect in the open areas. This was one paint I purchased: Behr's "Woodsmoke." It matches to Sherwin Williams' "Mindful Gray"...

CEILINGS, TRIM, & CABINETRY
The white color on my ceilings, doors, molding/trim, and upp kitchen cabinets (which also matches my kitchen and bathroom countertops, still the builders' original), originally mixed myself from white primer with a bit of orange and pink, turned out to be a perfect match to Behr's "White Clay." In Sherwin Williams' new color pack, it's "Aesthetic White," shown here...

DOORS & FURNITURE
The doors in my hallway, and some of the pieces of furniture that I've painted, which started life as a deep blue-charcoal with black mixed in, match SW's "Tricorn Black:"

I'm so pleased that I finally have ACTUAL color matches! I'm out of ALL of these colors; next time I need to do touch up, or match something, I'll have to go buy new paint, so this is going to come in VERY handy.
I'll do the actual COLORS tomorrow! :D

Talk to me! But be nice. Trolls and a-holes will be publicly humiliated and then sent a dead fish in the mail. :o)
