Paint Color Choices

Helpful tips and tricks when choosing paint colors. How to find a color consultant.

Color of the Year

color of the year 2014
Some day we’ll laugh about this…

New colors are declared “trendy” by those that know such things. Usually it warrants nothing more than a harrumph, but in this case it’s very clear that somebody got carried away with their Barney/Cookie Monster childhood.

Where would one use such a color? Options are limited as this color will likely induce motion sickness. Maybe a roller coaster? Primary school? Dandy sport coat?

Depending on your appetite for risk you might try this paint color in your living room – but understand the in-laws might not have a positive reaction. Last year’s color was a good bit more tolerable.

Crestwood Painting customers are a bit more courageous with color; nonetheless, this year’s color of the year might be a bit much. If you do find yourself so possessed please let me know – I’ll be over for a photo before we’re asked to repaint.
