I love the Goose Down hallway up thread but it looks very blue in my house.
I've got Dulux White Mist as my hallway is small and dark. I had Egyptian Cotton but it sucked all the light out.
Get lots of testers as colours can vary so much from room to room.

North-facing hallway, we used Sunseed by Dulux, creamy colour with some yellow tones, dark oak floor, light oak doors, radiator cover and mirror, oatmeal coloured stairs carpet, white ceiling and bannisters. I love it, it's light and welcoming and we've repainted it the same colour a few years back.

Also Bleached Lichen. The second to palest one on the walls and the darkest for woodwork.

Found a pic, although you can't see much of the main colour Grin

I went for deluxe heritage in silver fern in our light hallway.

It’s a very pale green/grey depending on the light.

@imabusybee your hallway colours are lovely

EmpressoftheMundane · 09/11/2020 18:04

I’m enjoying all the pictures, some really good ideas on here. Need to paint my hallway too and am not sure what to do!

StickTheKettleOnAlice · 09/11/2020 18:05

Thats a gorgeous hallway @DavetheCat2001

StickTheKettleOnAlice · 09/11/2020 18:08

@imabusybee your entrance flooring is gorgeous and I like the wood panelling and colours; lovely! I really want to decorate my hallway after seeing this thread now!

StickTheKettleOnAlice · 09/11/2020 18:13

I'm thinking of doing a mauve and white (not sure on white shade yet) sort of theme but with young dc around and lock down doubt it will happen soon. I will live vicariously through some of you posters on here with your beautifully decorated hallways!

@missyB1

Just finished ours. Paper is from wallpaper direct and paint is Dulux natural calico.
Ooh that's lovely

Funnily enough I have just tried white most in my fairly dark hallway and it's so dazzlingly white I don't like it! I have Egyptian cotton on there too and I can't decide if it's too dark.

I'm painting everything to get away from the kids Grin

Thank you @Larsingsong and @StickTheKettleOnAlice Grin I do love it. Previously the hallway was a real eyesore with magnolia walls, school-style industrial lino & some blown plaster (hence the panelling to avoid having to replaster)

On the first viewing of the house I had in my head the colours we've used and I'm so glad the reality matches up to it! Makes me smile every morning Smile I think hallways can be really forgotten about, but this thread shows that with a bit of effort and love they can be a real bonus room!

Purple below the dado rail, ivory above.

Mine is F&B oval room blue with a dark wood parquet floor

StickTheKettleOnAlice · 09/11/2020 18:23

Haha op I think I will use this excuse one weekend and retire to the upstairs (headphones secured) to decorate and leave dh to wrangle the rascals Wink

Jamhandprints · 09/11/2020 18:25

Overtly olive, and white

imabusybee · 09/11/2020 18:31

@ElectricEels the dog features in most of my photos, he's such a poser Grin

Emerald glaze which is dulux- its a sort if jewel like dark green, it's not too dark I'd like it darker but it's a lovely colour. Im a fan of dark interiors.

We have just redone our hall and went with F&B Oval Room Blue, as recommended to us by a friend who is an interior designer. I would never have chosen it but we love it.

Decorator is just finishing whole of downstairs in F&B Wimborne White. I love it. It's a lovely pale creamy white.
