{home} Getting Ready to Sell: Picking Paint Colors

So today’s post is about updating rooms with paint.  I seem to come across this tip all the time!  Paint freshens things up, makes spaces feel current and clean, and is a relatively cheap upgrade.  In our home, we are focusing on three areas: the master bathroom, the kitchen, and the trimwork…all are in need of a little “refreshment”.

I’m sticking to mostly neutrals, and can I just say that picking a white is HARD!  So many undertones!  I’ve been staring at these sample charts all week and I think I’ve made my decision, but no promises until I get to the paint counter 🙂  


Do you have a favorite neutral color for the kitchen or bathroom?  Have a go-to white for trim?  Please share in the comments…you just may make my life a whole lot easier!  Have a good weekend, friends!

    I went through the same dilemma last year and ended up choosing Glidden's Swiss Coffee. But since I don't like the Glidden brand, the Home Depot people matched the color in Behr. Absolutely love it! Hope that helps!
