#COLOR FOR DINING ROOM WALLS PATCH#

Even one accent wall can really change the look of your room without the commitment of it all being dark. Remember, you don’t have to paint an entire room dark. If you don’t know where to start, I think those two colors are amazing! A quick Pinterest search will give you tons of ideas.Ī two colors I keep seeing again and again are Hale Navy (first photo) and Salamander (second photo) both by Benjamin Moore. We’re well on our way to a beautiful new dining room!! Because I’m loving dark paint colors, I thought I’d share a few of my favorites!!ĭark paint is really trending right now. Almost too much, if that’s even possible. I was really comfortable going with such a dark color because the room has SO much natural light. The white trim really pops against the green. We’re going to have to end up painting the ceiling anyway hopefully sometime soon. We kept the ceiling white-ish (whatever color it was before). It feels like a mixture of evergreen and sage. We ended up deciding on North Woods!! It’s such a pretty green colors. Same thing though, basically a gray primer. Previously, we had used Sherwin-Williams paint and they offer just tinted primer for dark shades. It goes on and almost looks like a gray color. He used some of the actual North Woods color in regular primer to make the tinted shade. We got this paint at Home Depot and the guy there asked if we wanted tinted primer. This is definitely the result of regular primer. I’ve heard from others that when they’ve used dark paint it doesn’t look like the swatch when they’re done.

This is the second time we’ve worked with dark paint and both times we’ve used tinted primer. You guys, tinted primer makes ALL the difference. My biggest tip for working with dark paint – use tinted primer! Or, if you’re not going to be painting for a bit and you don’t want to looks at random blobs of paint on your wall, it may be nice to just peel them right off the wall. That way if you decide to go with a light paint you don’t have to worry about covering the dark paint sample. I think they would be useful if you’re testing out light AND dark options. The reason I chose this color was because I ran a Bed and Breakfast at the time, and my. I don’t think the sticky patches were 100% necessary for what I was doing. As Ive shown you here on, I started off with a sunny yellow / orange.

Then, you can just peel off the sticky patch (technical term) and you’re left with your original wall. They’re actually pretty neat – you stick them onto the wall then paint them with your samples. I chose a few different colors and tried out these sticky patch things ( also available at Home Depot). If you don’t remember, here’s how it looked before… The users should exercise due caution and/or seek independent advice before they make any decision or take any action on the basis of such information or other contents.A few weeks ago I shared our plans for our dining room renovation!
