The past several months I’ve been compiling a list of paint colors that I would call the best Go-To-Paint Colors around right now (and likely for very many years to come). I wanted to give you the cliffs notes version to paint colors! Sometimes the number of paint color options can be enough to make your head spin (in rainbow colors)! It might sound easy enough to pick a paint color but then you have a billion different hues with a billion different undertones and intensities. It makes me feel anxious just talking about it.:-) This post is meant to help save you time and headaches from paint color option paralysis by giving you 38 tried and true beautiful paint colors to begin with rather than millions! I hope it helps!! Please feel free to ask questions and if you want to share your favorite go-to paint colors in the comment section I would love to hear them!
38 Beautiful Go-To Paint Colors
WHITE
After you narrow the colors down to 3 or so for a room try my tip for finding the “right” color for the space the first time!
Why is choosing a paint color so paralyzing? Even for design lovers. I love that you showed each color in a space. That really helps. I am trying to decide on paint colors for two more rooms in our home and am “stuck.”
I think it’s so hard because every room has different lighting then the next so a color in one room could look much different in another room. Also the colors already going on in the room can change the look of the color. Color is tricky but the posterboard trick works everytime. I really recommend it!
hi beautiful website. I can’t seem to find royal navy its gorgeous but it doesn’t display thst color it doesnt exist. I tried emailing BM but no response. 🙁
I’m so sorry for the confusion, Peggy! I made a mistake…the color is actually called Benjamin Moore Deep Royal. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!!:-)
The pink you posted is called Wild Aster. You have it written as White Aster.
Thank you for the post, the colors are just what I was looking for as we decorate our home. I love the Behr butter color you posted and was going to feature a similar wall of white molding in a nursery. Can you tell me what white you used to pair with the Butter colored paint? There are so many whites to chose from!
Thanks!
I love Behr’s Ultra Pure White for baseboard and trim.
