Choose a paint color

Paint looks different on a big wall, in your room's light, than on a small chip in a store.

How

1. Collect a few chips you like
2. Buy sample pots of your top two or three
3. Paint large swatches on poster board or the wall
4. Look at them in morning, afternoon and evening light
5. Live with them for a few days before deciding

Tip

North-facing rooms get cooler light; south-facing rooms get warmer light. Colors can shift a lot between them.
