paint colors

choosing the right colors is friggin' hard...help me out a bit pls :)



what colors do you have in your house?

what are your favorite color combos?


i'm so very sick of all those neutral tans, mossy greens, puppy paw colors...but you can never go wrong with them.
i was thinking off whites and pale yellows, or poo brown and whites, or tomato red and white.

My room is a rich red. It's east indian styles. I hate plain colours. They're no fun.

Ill try take some pictures of my studio. It's half red, sprayed paint in the can gives it that goo look, with black lines on the wall.

Goto Home Depot and get color schemes, brochures, they have two tone color schemes if your interested in that. Try to go for a contempurary color that you will be relaxed in.

Try here there is a simple online tool to help you out

Last night I was thinking about how I want to pain my room. My room is pretty small, and right now its painted dark blue which makes it look even smaller. I think I'll go with a light colour to open it up?
I wish Debbie Travis would come redo it. lol

my room is a green.. but it's nice.
not super colourful, but so much different from the rest of my boring house [white/beige/ugly]

home depot has a little computer thing you can use to match colours, then it'll make a print out for you so you can get those colours.

for good paint, i suggest benjamin moore. their stuff is really nice.

the way my friend painted her walls, she made straight line from the bottom left hand corner of the wall to the top right hand corner (using one of those chalk string dealys)..and it seperated the wall into 2 triangles...fill one orange and one pink, you get results...it looked fucking pimp....even for those fruity colors i was impressed.
