Color Tips:
1). Select colors that you tend to go towards
I had two color palates - one cool and one warm.
I tend to go towards warmer colors and that made my decision.
2). Select many colors then narrow down.
3). Always paint or hold up samples vertically on your walls.
3). Paint samples on your walls in many places.
4). Be sure to look at the colors at different times of the day.
Also,on cloudy and sunny days!
5). If you are working with a contractor
double check the color when the painting begins.
Contractor paints are not the same quality as the sample paints.
6). Consider the colors of the fabrics that will be in the room.
7). Enjoy the colors that you choose!
Happy Painting!
