Pantone Winter 2012 - Coffee & Nougat for your walls


When I see these colors, my initial thought of "yummy" immediately goes to "warm and cozy."  These neutrals make great wall colors because they evoke memories of hot chocolate and warm blankets!


I wouldn't have thought of a brown paint for a nursery, but doesn't it look feminine and sophisticated?  TALENT.

This is one of those colors that I don't think I'd ever get tired of because it would be so versatile.


Remember when I said these colors aren't flashy?
Well, I fibbed a little... look at this stunner of a chevron accent wall created by Stephanie at Sabbe Interior Design with contact paper!  I realize that chevron patterns are trendy, but what an impact this wall would have in a small space - a bathroom, an office, an entryway or even a closet!


Pottery Barn... I think this is either Benjamin Moore Shaker Beige or Wheatfield.

What did we learn today?
1.  Neurals make amazing wall colors, and I can't wait until I own a home so I can paint.
2.  Chevron can still look new when done in a neutral palette.  Let me believe this.
3.  I am a little bit obsessed with Benjamin Moore paints.
