Does anybody have any idea what color these walls might be? Or a color that is similar?
Thanks! 
-
They look similar to the color I used to paint one of our bathrooms. The color was "Sea Salt" from Sherwin Williams. It was one of the HGTV colors. It's probably not that exact color but it looks really close.
-
We have a similar color in our bathrooms called Italian Ice Green by Benjamin Moore. Maybe that would work?

It could also be SW Comfort Gray, which isn't really gray, lol.
-
@walnutems: I looooooooove that color! It looks so close! Thanks!
@Sunshine1810: Our whole house is Sherwin Williams and I used to have the color swatches... but gave them back to our painter. Oh how I miss them! I've heard of that color. Gonna look it up - thanks!
-
Our bathroom is BM palladian blue; attaching a Pinterest pic of it
-
It looks like a slightly paler version of Sherwin Williams 2013 color of the year - aloe. It's the color we would like to use in the nursery, if we ever get around to repainting!
-
@runnerd: is that Katie Bowers office?
I spend too much time online haha
-
@MrsTiz: lol I think so
-
@looch: It does have gray tones to it... boooooo! Our crib and glider are gray and our master and another bedroom are gray so I'm trying to avoid anything slightly gray but the color IS gorgeous!
@runnerd: Eeeeep! I loooove that color too!
@deerylou: I bet if I grabbed the aloe swatch and picked a color a couple shades lighter, it'd be very close!
You ladies are awesome!!!
-
@Ash: You're welcome! It might be a little bit more pale than the color in that picture but it is really pretty. I love it! I actually think I am going to use that color in our bedroom too.
-
@Ash: I want to second the BM Palladian Blue. This is the color of our living room/hallway (and will most likely be the color of our kitchen. It's such a great blue, it looks more aloe green in some lights and I love it.
-
@evansjamie: Would you happen to have a pic of it in your house?
-
@Ash: I don't have a picture here at work, but I'll see if I can find one at home. Here's a link to the color on the BM website: http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/palladianblue
I had it color matched at Sherwin-Williams in eggshell, so it's got a slight sheen that I like.

Restoration Hardware atmosphere blue?
-
@evansjamie: That's okay - I went to houzz and there are a ton of photos!!
-
@runnerd: @evansjamie: I'm going this weekend to get a sample! Thanks girls!
-
@evansjamie: @runnerd: Boooooo! We got the sample and the color looks... weird... Humph!!
We'll probably go with the color on the right.
-
@Ash: I really like that color on the right!
-
@Ash: one thing I'll say.... Our bathroom was hunter green before we painted it, and it looked just awful when I put the sample on... Like white paint. I totally just had to go with faith that it would look good when we got done and it did!
I would recommend putting the samples on a white poster board... The current wall color prolly distorts some.
I agree the 3rd one looks best there!
-
@runnerd: I wish we never would have painted this room to begin with cuz now all colors on it look so... weird. Palladian Blue is the middle color which doesn't even seem close to what it should be. That's okay though.
I like the poster board idea! @evansjamie: I'm thinking that's the one. It was just a random sample I picked up over the weekend.
-
What if you prime the wall, or get the paint with the primer in it? I think it might make a difference.
-
@looch: We probably will! Our neighbor is a painter so once I pick my color, he'll come in and work his magic.
-
We're doing this now too. Some of the colors I put on the wall DH insisted were white. I tried to paint a bigger section so he could see the color but he still insisted it was white, I think part of the problem was the weird colored tan wall behind. Then the one color I kinda liked and had shut the blinds to see how it would look in the evening and still liked it. But once evening came whew, it was ugly. We picked a color but I'm not 100% convinced, guess we'll see how it looks once it goes up. I'm hoping white trim and some decoration will be able to make up for if we picked a not great color.
-
@Maysprout: Oh my, we're totally in the same boat! Argh! I'm just ready for everything to be painted and done.
