October Journal: Seasonal Hues
Welcome to our October Journal! Want to know the paint colors we’re crushing on this season? This month’s journal is for you. Nothing transforms a space like a fresh coat of paint. As the seasons begin to change, we are coveting all the moody and saturated tones. While not every room in a home needs to be accented by paint, we love using accent hues in dining rooms, small sitting rooms, powder rooms, bathrooms, and pantries. We’ve been loving the use of color popping back into millwork and cabinetry as well. These seasonal hues are sure to warm your home, creating cozy spaces that are welcoming yet sophisticated.
Not only is selecting a paint color one of the toughest and most important decisions, but one of the questions we get asked most often is “What finish goes where”? To answer that question, we’ve created a guide we typically go by. Bookmark this entry to revisit when you are starting a paint project!
