Picking a paint color is something that I get asked about constantly. I wish I could say there is an exact science to it, but the truth is- it can be hard! There is a fair amount of trial and error involved, but through the years I have found some favorite paint colors that I find myself coming back to time and time again.

It sounds like some of you have seen our house spread in the fall issue of Domino! Now that the issue is out, I can share some more photos, including one of my favorite spaces – the music room!

I was lucky enough to get to work with Farrow & Ball on behalf of Domino a couple months ago. They had heard that I was picking a F&B color for my music room (I’ve already mentioned before that Michael and I had decided against the bright cobalt blue), and they offered to send a color expert over to the house for a color consultation.

(someday my house will not be covered in a layer of construction dust)

Michael has a great eye and he has definitely become fluent in decorator-speak after years of hearing me yammer on about this stuff. He always has an opinion (and I love hearing his spot-on ideas), but he’s also really flexible, for which I’m so grateful. He trusts me and is willing to sign off on most anything I am planning to do.

The foyer, library and living room all have really crazy-high vaulted ceilings. Like 20 feet high. The idea of even climbing a ladder that reached that high is pretty dizzying, let alone painting the walls. Let alone skim coating and sanding away the texture on all the walls! (shudder!)

I hardly ever hire out painters for my own spaces because I don’t mind just doing it myself, but the job for these three rooms was definitely in the DDIY category, and I called in the big guns.
