Light green nursery paint color recommendation?
Hi - my house was completely renovated and I need to choose paint colors for the entire house now! For our nursery I am tossing between Thornton Sage from Benjamin Moore and Kittery Point Green. Does anyone have any recommendations on whether to go with the light calm sage or the brighter Kittery color? We are not going to find out whether were having a boy or girl so I want to keep it neutral to decorate later! Thank you!
I am choosing adobe beige for our living room/dining room/stairs after seeing a recommendation on here for that paint color. I wanted a warm beige neutral that wasnt too dark. I love the way bar harbor beige looks in the picture but the swatch seemed so much darker in my house.
Thanks again!!!

At our old apartment we had adobe beige in DS room because I wanted a light beige and I hated how it came out. It was really dark. I even looked at pictures before hand. I loved the color but just not what I was looking for for that room. If you are looking for a good light beige I would check out Manchester Tan from BM.

Also, is this the kind of green you were looking for? It's BM Stem Green. They have it in a girls room but I think it would look good in a boys room too. We just had DS#1 room painted last week for his big boy room and picked BM dill pickle which is similar.

I chose the "liveable green" from sherwin willians which is a shade lighter than sage..
It went perfect with our winnie the pooh theme and espresso furniture.

Re: Light green nursery paint color recommendation?
Thank you all for replying!++
SI wasnt sure if Manchester Tan was too light - i do want a contrast from the wall to the trim. S+o many people love shaker beige but it seems that it has a greenish khaki tint to it. Hmm..

Re: Light green nursery paint color recommendation?
DD's room is Kittery Point Green and at first, I thought it was a little too bright but now I love it. It is so cheerful and it brightens the room so much. I think it is great for a girls room...not sure how I woudl accessorize for a boys room but Im sure it would look great with light blue accents. We get alot of complimnts on it.

DS's room is Kittery Point Green. We didn't know what we were having and I thought it was a pretty neutral color. I love the way the color looks in the nursery.
