Looking to paint my hall and looking for a lovely stone colour, so a bit grey/beige and not too pale but not very dark either !
if you have any recommendations or even a pic I would appreciate it !
I have bought a couple of tester pots already but can’t seem to find what I’m after

Look at Paper and Paint Library, they are the best for these shades.
I also like Mylands.

If you have more to decorate then I suggest buying the fan decks rather than tester pots.

I've recently used Pudding by Coat paints in my bedroom, it's a really lovely neutral. Bright in the day but also cosy in the evenings.

Coat often have discounts and sales on so don't pay full price for the paint!!

Dulux Just Walnut. Similar to Dulux Egyptian Cotton.

I had this requirement and eventually went with Dulux Swansdown which I am very happy with.

Just painted my dining room in Well Grounded by Coat Paints. Would highly recommend. We ordered the neutrals sample pack (stickers which attach to the wall) and stuck up for a few days in different lights.

Tailor tack

Little Greene: Stone Pale Warm.

NB It looks a bit orangey/peachey online, but is lovely in real life.

I'm trying to work out whether our hall and landing (painted a few years ago) are Egyptian Cotton, Hay Bale or Natural Hessian - all by Dulux. Whichever, it is a warm, sandy neutral that never looks cold or dreary even in mid Feb. Worth trialling them.

I like th elook of Paint & Paper Library Canvas IV too. Their paint is lovely.

Dulux Crispy Crumble
