Now THIS is How You Choose a Paint Color

We're in the busy season as everyone buys homes and moves in, but I've popped in to show you this beautiful gallery wall which we recently re-hung after the homeowner had her den painted. (I can't take credit for the layout - we didn't even move the hangers - but she wanted someone to safely handle the larger pieces for her.)

I only got one good photo, but look at this blue! It's even better in person - it looks like cloisonne enamel. And before you ask, the brand was Benjamin Moore, but sadly I don't know the name of the color.

The homeowner painted all of these pieces herself, so she certainly has an eye for color. It's not often that we see homes with so many saturated tones like this. It takes more skill to pull off, but it's definitely worth it in the end.

​I think another reason this brilliant blue works so well is that it's used in a fairly dark room with a very low ceiling. When you have a shadowy room like this, sometimes the best choice is to embrace it and go with a dark, bold tone.

If you're having your home repainted and you need someone to safely take down and rehang your collection, please get in touch. We'll be happy to help.
