well we will have a L shaped formal livingroom and then diningroom..so they have to be the same color since it shares a same wall

i am thinking of warmer beiges-light tans with white trim and dark furniture

our familyroom i was also thinking of green tones


i LOVE earth tones

my previous condo was olives, lighter greens, browns and beiges

although i am thinking for our computer room some sort of mustard color or something in the yellows..it is a small room so i need a light color

bedroom i am TOTALLY STUCK

Re: Picking Paint Colors

Oh, I know. We did a few rooms of our house in the same beigey color and then accessorized each room differently. But beige colors have a variety of different undertones and we went through several before we got it right. Some are bluish, some are pinkish, some are yellowish! Now that we have the color, we are so happy with it.
