I look forward to ideas.
Thank you
If it is paint that was used in the painting of the interior or exterior of your house, then why throw it away? You may need it for touchup later. It's better to have the original paint for two reasons:

First, it's the right color and it's already paid for. Second, it's sure to match what you have unless your paint has faded. In that case, you could always add just a small amount of white paint to lighten up the color enough to match the paint that's on the walls.
