Benjamin Moore paint - how do you pick their colours?

Have used Little Greene for years but new decorator has suggested Benjamin Moore paint but they have over 3500 colours. Sorry if the answer to this is obvious as I’m new to the brand but how do you pick their colours from such a vast range?

Do you have a BM store near you? I went and they were amazing at helping me narrow down and identify the best options - they really knew the range and listened and responded to what I wanted. I definitely would’ve been too overwhelmed to start on my own!

Agree with PP about going to a store if there's one near you. You can call them to find out. 01753 575 756
Otherwise, on the website, you can start with "explore colour" and then go to "colour families."

They also have special collections, such as the Historical Collection and Off-Whites.
They offer a half-pint sample for £5.95 and a peel-and-stick for £2.95.
I've used them a lot - agree with your decorator that they're a good brand.

We got our Benjamin Moore samples and paint from Brewers. I also used Pinterest to narrow down shades that I wanted to try before I went.

Thank you everyone! Turns out Brewers in our town are a stockist although the local branch doesn’t have the colour card or mix the paint but the one in a nearby town does.

I’ve narrowed down options via their website as I’m looking for a bold green so I only looked at darker greens which narrowed things down quite a bit.
