what is the color shown on the walls at 1:37? I am looking to paint my bedroom and this is difficult for me because I am terribly colorblind. Thank You! Great vid!

Hello @spygurl126,

I am not sure what image you are asking about. Can you be more specific?

Thank you for watching!

Thanks for the comment. I am sorry, but I know longer have the records on that particular home. I can tell you that is was a cooler taupe neutral, so it did not have a strong *cream* tint.

Very informative video. Thank you.

My light wood floors have slight orange tint to them. Should I paint my walls a pale/grey/light blue? or a pale/grey/ light purple? I'm going for a vintage/chic look.

@oOLim0o , Go for a purple color.

Hello, I have sent you a decorating video of my living room, could you tell me which color would look right with my decors. Thanks. The video is E'Lisa Interior Decorating (Living Room).

Fabulous information with Vicki.

This is a really good lesson in choosing paint colors. One other concept for people to keep in mind is that darker colors and eggshell or semi-gloss finishes require more paint and labor for proper coverage. They also make imperfections in the walls look more prominent and shouldn't be used unless the walls are in great condition.

Thanks for the helpful lesson.

Thank you so much for all your help. Could you provide me with the brand and color name/type for the dining room walls, ceiling and trim at the 1.37 point.

Thank you
