Picking paint colors can be difficult when given too many options, which is always the problem. Start with one color that you want to see in the room and go off of that. I picked a paint color for my family room and even for me being around colors everyday and choosing them for others I had difficulty on my own room. I wanted them all :). I knew I wanted a gray and cream combination. I worked from there and everything just fell into place. It’s always good to have some inspiration too.
My Inspiration
Family Room Color Scheme
Before investing in paint always buy a sample and apply it to two areas in the room, by a window or a door that lets natural light in and on the other side where the light may not hit. You will be able to see if the color changes in different lights and make sure you see it both at night and day. You may think you don’t want to spend the money on the samples but it beats spending money on the gallon and not loving it.
