White
I know, crazy, but they really ARE different!
When I tell you this is my number one reomended white paint color I'm not exaggerating. It's got the perfect hint of cream to it so it registers as a warm white and can be used as your *everywhere* color. Love love love her!
Simply White 2143-70 | Benjamin Moore
My go to cool white. Has a hint of gray-blue in it so it's great for a bathroom if you want that cool crisp clean feel
Distant Gray OC-68 | Benjamin Moore
Like the name says, this is a fav among decorators because it's got gray undertones and reads NEW and FRESH - it's a landlord fav
Decorator's White OC-149 | Benjamin Moore
How to choose the right color for you
It's a good idea to swatch or sample before buying paint
A liquid sample of paint for you to do a few swipes on the wall. You're goin to get the most info good or bad out of this step
Paint Color Samples - 8 oz.
If actual paint feels like too much trouble, do paper color cards. You can buy them OR find your local BM retailer and get them for free!
Color Swatch - 4''x8''
When you're ready to buy, consider what sheen you want. If you aren't sure, Eggshell is a no-brainer and stay away from matte
