Finally getting around to compiling a lovely little list for you of all the colors I’ve painted in my house. And since I’m currently in the process of painting a new room, this list will continue to be updated overtime. Let me just tell you, I love different colors of paint! Honestly, picking paint colors, or just looking at different paint colors is one of my favorite things to do. You could say I get a little obsessive about finding just the right color, in just the right shade, it can totally be a downfall for me, because it can take me longer to find that perfect shade of light tan-beige-kaki-grey, but the plus side is I will find it, and when I do I’m happier with the outcome.
Most of these pictures you have probably seen before, but I find it easiest to share colors when you have a picture that goes with it!

Dining Room:
Wood Smoke by: Glidden
Ok, so I know most of you are probably thinking, that looks exactly like the last color, Mindful Grey. But I assure it’s not. It’s just a bit darker than Mindful Grey, and you can see in the photo below because they are the two colors I painted my first strips with.
Darker grey stripe : Wood Smoke
Lighter grey stripe : Mindful Grey

Living Room:
1st color
Wasabi Powder by: Behr
The perfect subtle shade of muted green.
{To see the first before & after click here.}
2nd Color (current)
Halo by: Benjamin Moore
After longing for something more neutral, and not convinced I could go all white,
this did the trick for me. The perfect beige-grey, with subtle green undertones, that changes slightly depending on the lighting through out the day. I love it, and it will be here to stay for awhile.

Master Bedroom:
Abingdon Putty by: Benjamin Moore
{To read about our DIY Board & Batten click here.}
2 color (current)
Hazy Skies : Benjamin Moore
I know in photos it looks like the exact some color. However the 2nd color has more of a grey undertone. They are the same exact shade, Hazy Skies just has more of a grey feel to it.

Home Office:
Hazy Skies : Benjamin Moore

Beautiful rooms, thanks for sharing the paint colors. What sheen are these paints? I think the sheen makes a big difference.
Hi Julie! Thanks so much, I typically stick to a flat or satin sheen when picking paint 🙂
Hi there, I just wanted to say that I love your home and your decorating style. I asked about your paint color before I got to your post on paint colors lol! I enjoyed your site and have bookmarked it so I can return again! It was nice to meet you Bre! Oh, I can relate to your “about me section”, I have a new site and I haven’t completed the “about me section”. I have been struggling with what to write. You have inspired me to give it another shot! Thanks for the visit and for sharing your home and your style.
Hello!!! Love your kitchen and am inquiring about the shelves. Where did you get them? I’d love them in our kitchen. Thanks!
Katie
Hi Katie! Our shelves are from IKEA about 7 years ago, and the brackets are corbels from Home Depot, that I painted white 🙂
I know I’ve already ask you in another post about your wall colors – and then I find this one on your paint colors. 🙂 Sorry about that. LOL
One thing you didn’t mention here is your trim colors. Especially the trim in the Halo and Grey Owl rooms?
Hi Sandi. I actually don’t have a trim paint color name 🙂 That’s why it’s not listed, I just ask for white trim paint in gloss, and use whatever they give me. Takes the guess work out 🙂
It is really difficult for anybody to choose paint colors for their homes. That is one of the issues we encounter the most with our painting service customers. People just have hard time choosing what colors to use for their walls, both inside and out. It is a long process of question and answer before we get to recommend color mix for anybody. It has to match their personality and personal preferences. Your house here is very well lit. I just love any colors combined with white. So dainty!

Beautiful your design.
I love the colors you painted your house!
Great reference for a starting point to beautiful spaces! Thanks!
Thank you for this list, I asked in another post what colors you used, but it was here all along!! 😉
I also love looking up paint colors. It’s really a crucial part in any renovation process, so it takes a lot of time and thinking to pick the prefect one. Other people might look at shades of pink and just call it pink, but not us. We simply just know our fuchsias from our magentas and carnations. Hahaha! Anyway, all the colors you chose are beautiful. The before and after pics are all lovely! You really have a good eye for beauty and style. Thank you for sharing the pictures! Good luck with your next project!

Bre I signed up for your blog quite awhile ago and I received it just on time. Then all of a sudden it stopped and if I try to sign up again it says I already am signed up but I am not receiving it. This has happened with quite a few of the blogs I am subscribed to, not just yours. Sometimes I can cancel my subscription and then re-sign but that didn’t work with yours. Can you help on your end?
I love everything about this home; decor, layout, modern aspect and especially that large opening to the beautiful back yard. Amazing!
