I found picking paint colors to be really hard. We called a consultant the first time and she didn't seem to give me much advice. The colors we finally picked were horrendous. 6 months later we had to paint again because we hated the paint so much. The second colors were no better. Finally we saw a friend's house and we both said we want those colors. Lucky the friend didn't mind and gave us the color names. We repainted a third time with a color on the bottom, a chair rail in the middle and white on top. It looks fabulous. It took three tries. I would highly recommend bringing home samples and painting them on the walls to see just how the color looks in the lighting of your house. Very important. Plus it's much easier to buy the furniture and pillows first then paint.
