15 Accent Wall Colors: Which One Is The Best?

If you are a lover of the medium hues, you should consider these colors. They never go out of style.

Blue paint swatches have the following choices:

• Misty SW – 6232
• Breezy SW – 7616
• Stardew SW – 9138
• Downing slate SW – 2819
• Bracing blue SW – 6242
• Labradorite SW – 7619
• Needlepoint navy SW – 0032
• Anchors aweigh SW – 9179
• Sea serpent SW – 7615

In case you are looking for a safe color, I strongly recommend a bold navy. On the contrary, if you want to create a unique wall, cornflower blue is a great solution. It is a shade of medium-to-light blue with a little green like valuable blue sapphires.

Do you enjoy creating a beautiful forest at your home?

Painting some things like fireplace, dining room, tallboy dresser, and walls green can bring a healthy dose of green for your home.

Are black and gray dull and dark moody colors?

NO.

They even can create a unique accent wall of the nice neutral backdrop.

However, it is not for all cases. You can apply this combination when your house has furniture, fixtures, and textiles with bold colors.

I suggest you use black and gray in an unexpected way. For example, your bathroom will have a fantastic look when painting SW 6258 Tricorn Black.

• Repose gray SW – 7015
• Mindful gray SW – 7016

Get rid of the thinking that while color can’t create a beautiful accent wall. Even I applied a bright white wall, and it is so beautiful.

One of the most beautiful examples is applying it to your ceiling.

Using Sherwin-Williams SW 7007 Ceiling Bright White brings you a classic and bright white ceiling. This idea gives your home a cool atmosphere and looks great with the rest of your house. Speaking of classic white trim, SW 7006 Extra White is always the top choice.
