I doubt this really would count as a project but since this will be my first attempt at painting a room, you'll just have to let me slide.
Here is what I know so far, Most of the downstairs rooms will be some shade of green and upstairs will be blue.
There are 3 walls that make up the living room. The wall connected to the stairs is where the tv will be located. I plan to paint this wall a single color just not sure which one yet. The other two walls will have our couch and love seat against them. The two walls will also have pvc pipe running along them at a height slightly above the couch. The PVC pipe will be the same color as the trimming in the room and I plan to use two different shades of green above and below the pipe.
Here are the questions that I would love to hear your opinions on:
1. For the walls with two shades of green, Should the lighter green be on top or the bottom.
2. How much of a shading contrast should I use for the walls with two shades.
3. For the wall with only one paint shade, should it be the darker or lighter green.
4. Should I use a totally different shade of green for the ceiling or one of the other two already used in the room.

The wife thinks we should leave the ceilings the same color as the trim. I can live with that. I hope the ceiling and trim are already the same color so I will have less work.
ReplyDeleteyou should leave the ceilings white. And stay away from dark colors in the living room. Save the dark green/felt color for the game room. And speaking of building cutouts for the game room, how about a full size replica of the game Mousetrap?
