We need to repaint and don't know what colour. Currently it is 2 tones of grey and DH hates it. We want to go all one colour.

What colour is yours?

Very light sage and browns.

It's a valspar colour match to F&B skimming stone. Its a south facing room so it's very warm cream, almost like vanilla ice cream in the sun, but when its darker its more greige. I like it a lot.

Denim drift
I chose it,dp wasn’t sure,I painted it but then hated it
dp loved it and didn’t want to repaint so I got a friend and my ds to tell me the truth if they liked it or not
both loved it and it took me a week to like it-now I love it
hallway is sage green and they really go together

Sage green and a paler green with dark brown furniture.

I've used Dulux Pebble Shore and I love it. I thought it was going to have warm tones but it's more like a cool beigy grey with blue tones in some lights. I can't explain it but it's lovely.

Mallard Green, like this picture, but with a picture rail and white above the rail and on the ceiling so it’s not too oppressive. I love it. Goes from looking green in sunlight to looking almost very dark blue and almost black at night in candle light or side lights. Very cosy.

Brilliant white walls with a F&B De Nimes chimney breast.

Theatre Room Red.

hiredandsqueak · 13/02/2023 12:55

Mines and off white/ neutral coulour because I've got purple sofas and green curtains and cushions so more than enough colour. What colur are your sofas and flooring that will influence the colour of your wallls I would think?

WednesdaysPlaits · 13/02/2023 12:55

little greene slaked lime. Its basically a warm off white

DisplayPurposesOnly · 13/02/2023 12:56

Dulux buttermilk

Wimborne white with a dark green chimney breast.

Tranquil dawn, Dulux. It's beautiful.

NeedToKnow101 · 13/02/2023 13:15

Mine is a dark forest green (can't remember name) and a pink which looks like plaster drying in some lights and warmer pink in other lights. Very happy with it.

Rebellious23 · 13/02/2023 13:16

Dulux polished pebble, and wallpaper

SingingSands · 13/02/2023 13:17

White, with dark blue on one wall, and dark blue in the alcoves either side of the chimney breast. I really like it, we couldn't paint the chimney breast dark (which is the usual way) as it's a strange L-shaped one.

Ours is one by Valspar called grand boulevard it’s green/blue I guess teal it’s not super dark. Get so many compliments on it, it’s got a really lovely feel.

depends if you want colour or not, that would be your first point of call to decide which way you want to go

LadyMargaretDevereux · 13/02/2023 13:19

F and B Card Room Green (well, colour matched) which is a sort of darkish sage green. I -ordered too much- liked it so much that I've also done our bedroom and the spare room in the same. White paintwork and shutters.

BitOutOfPractice · 13/02/2023 13:19

Mostly white with a wall of this (modern apartment)

Fixesplease · 13/02/2023 13:19

Another one with Polished Pebble... plus a feature wall that's branches or something also in a Gray.
Desperately needs decorating ( last done 6 years ago) but a baby DS and what was then 4 dogs have taken their toll!

I shall follow this for inspiration! 😁
Cheers OP.

Duck egg blue and cream

Sexypyjamas · 13/02/2023 13:21

It's Dulux magnolia, which has needed a repaint since the first week it went on (thanks to DCs and blueberries). It was white but I hated it. It's all one colour, DH can't stand feature walls or any colour of paint that's not white. If it was all my choice it would be wallpapered feature wall and the rest a very light hue of green.

halfsiesonapotnoodle · 13/02/2023 13:22

Little Greene Masquerade. It's a fabulous colour.
