I finally put all the paint colors in our Utah Home in one place! And I compiled my favorite paint from past projects at the end of this post. First let’s chat chat about paint sheen. For ceiling sheen, I prefer flat. For trim and door sheen, I prefer semi-gloss. Lastly, for wall sheen, I prefer eggshell. In our current home we used A LOT of Farrow & Ball paint colors. I LOVE Farrow & Ball colors, and their actual paint is high-end and gorgeous. That being said, we hired a painter to paint our home and our cabinet designer painted our cabinets. I gave them the names and actual paint samples I bought from Farrow & Ball. Some purchased Farrow & Ball Paint and some were color matched. Matching paint colors will NOT be exact. That being said, I am completely happy with all the colors in our home!


Favorite Paint Supplies-

- Wooster Paint Brush– angled paint brush we always use, allows you to cut in without using tape.
- Paint Sprayer– this has two paint tips and two stain tips, also has a paint bag for easy clean out.
- Smooth Roller– we use this roller cover the most for a smooth, lint free finish.
- Extendable Roller– this extendable roller makes it really easy to paint ceilings and hard to reach areas.
- Light Switch Cover (paintable)– paint this light switch cover the same color as your walls to blend right in!
- Plug Cover (paintable)–same idea as the light switch cover, no more large white square sticking out on a dark wall.
- Reusable Paint Drop Cloth– you can get plastic drop cloths, if you are doing a lot of painting these are nice to have!
- Paint Deck– did you know you can order paint decks online or go into a paint store to get one? Picking paint colors just got a lot easier! (In the store I have paid $10 for a paint deck).
- Painting Furniture– blog post on how we paint furniture.
