Color my world...

As we prepare to begin our kitchen remodel, painting choices come up again. Perhaps we might be able to switch to a Martha Stewart color scheme.

Previously, we had gone with a simple interior color theme we picked up at Sherwin Williams, called, "Streamlined Years." Admittedly, the era of the color theme is older than our 1959 house. When the day comes to sell the house, most likely we'll paint everything in sight beige...yuck.

All the wood trim in of our house is painted bright white. Accents or main colors of some of our rooms are:
  • Our master bedroom - Cascade Green (SW 0066)
  • The study - Copen Blue (SW 0068)
  • The living room - Porcelain (SW 0053)
  • Hallways/Stairways - Porcelain (SW 0053) (still not finished yet!)
  • Dining room - Porcelain (SW 0053) below the chair rail, Copen Blue (SW 0068) above
  • Basement - we broke and went with Sherwin Williams Friendly Yellow (SW 6680) which is reasonably close to the Streamlined Color theme of Belvedere Cream (SW 0067)
