It’s a challenge for many people to pick paint colors, but many paint colors are tried and true. With few exceptions, the historic colors from Benjamin Moore always look good. Greens and purples can be the hardest to hit, so if you are not sure, test your paint colors before committing.

Sample pots of many of Benjamin Moore’s most popular paints are now available to order online. They cover approximately 4 sq feet of wall space.
C2 is renting cans of paints (good for the environment.) you bring back what you don’t use and they rent the rest to the next customer. They also sell poster-sized giant paint chips for about $8. Call ahead to see if the colors you want are available in the large poster-sized samples. C2 Paints can be found at limited locations, but they are worth the travel, especially for deeper colors.
