When we go out to give bids on interior painting we often get a request to match colors of previous paints, artwork, rugs, dishes and other household items. Sometimes a chlid may have bedding they love that you can take colors from to set the room off.
Paint stores in the Portland area usually have great computer matching color systems that will very closely match a color for you. If you can take the item into your local Sherwin Williams or Miller Paint they can do amazing things.
As a painting contractor for almost 20 years I have seen a lot of different color matching ideas from customers and designers. Some customers will take a favorite set of dishes and paint their kitchen to match the color. Many of the beautiful countertops that are installed have amazing colors in them that you can get paint ideas from.
It might be a favorite piece of artwork that your child made or a Picasso on your wall that you want the paint to closely match in your family room or bedrooms. Many times a man cave or office will have colors that include our local sports teams or a cool signed photograph.
It is a popular choice in a bathroom to look at rugs and towels and match a paint color that will go with this decor. Of course color is always subjective and you may want a completely different color than what is in the room. In any case we are always here to help with you color choices at Absolute Painting. Our full time designer/color expert is willing to help you and give great ideas so you get it right the first time. Feel free to call us today if you have any interior painting projects that we can help you with.
