Green is considered a cool color but, the greener shade of this paint seems more warm and welcoming. Go for it!

It really is a pretty, rich and velvety color. It’s hard to resist it and I was so close to choosing it. I’m sure it would have been bold, and while I think it would’ve looked great I was afraid I couldn’t pull it off with the furniture and other accessories. That was why I bailed on it. If it makes you happy you should keep it, but I TOTALLY understand wanting a change too.

While I do love it, I have some regrets. It does, as you mentioned, bring out the red in my natural wood trim in way I wasn’t expecting. It is also very dark and very punchy. The most common thing people say when they see it for the first time is, “Whoa! Blue!” I will probably repaint at some point in the near future.

Good luck!

I bought 5 quarts of white paint before I decided on the right “hue”. Who buys five different shades of white?? I DO!
Yesterday when you posted the options I was team ‘Galapagos Turquoise’ however, now that I see the ‘Dragonfly’ painted in a larger swatch I’m switching teams. ‘Dragonfly’ is still a rich color without being so “hey look at me I’m a big blue room!!”
Can’t wait to see the Newburg, Thanks for sharing.
:)

Also, if my walls were perfect I might consider an egg shell with a dark paint color just to reflect light around a bit, but not an option for me.

Hey Alexa,

Flat!, always flat for my walls. You can probably tell in the photos that my walls are not perfect. That plaster has been dingged up over the years, the semi-gloss just emphasizes all of that. Flat paint or matte hides the imperfections perfectly.

What’s your preferred gloss for indoor paint? None at all?
