Tips for selecting paint colors

People always ask me, how do you pick paint colors? What type-gloss, semi gloss, flat? It can be overwhelming and challenging. But it can also be easy! 



  • Start with your overall decorating scheme. The easiest is to go with the main background color of your pattern. 
  • Get paint samples, this is a MUST since paint comes in an infinite amount of colors. 
  • Really study the paint sample colors. There are so many underlying tones that can affect the overall look of the color on the walls. 
  • Choose your finish-Matte and flat finishes hide wall imperfections while gloss reflects light. 



Here is a great quick video with awesome tips.
