First Annual Remodelaholic’s Favorite Paint Color Poll

written by:Cyndy Aldred

Reader Poll - Favorite Paint Colors @Remodelaholic

Hi again Remodelaholics, it’s Cyndy from The Creativity Exchange here again to talk paint colors.  Last month, I shared a color palette of some of my favorite “New Neutral” colors here.  Today, I’m so excited to announce the first annual Remodelaholic’s Favorite Paint Color Poll and to kick off the voting.

For two years now, I have done an annual favorite paint color poll on my blog and it has become really a popular  feature because we end up with a fantastic palette of paint colors that are tried and true, work in a variety of lighting situations and most importantly, colors that people love in their homes.  Each year, our final palette has become a awesome resource for people looking for the best colors that don’t just look good on a card but look amazing on a wall!

**By the way, all of today’s images are colors from The Creativity Exchange’s favorite paint color poll here

For the next three weeks (starting today), we will be encouraging readers to vote by simply sharing your favorite paint color(s) here or via any Remodelaholic social media.  All you have to do is tell us your favorite home paint color, or color that you have used in the past and loved and we’ll do the rest.  You can share multiple colors and if you want to tell us why you love it, that’s great too!

On Friday, March 6th, we will close the voting and tally up the most popular colors and I’ll create a final palette of about 15 of the colors that were mentioned by reader’s the most.  I will be back on March 13th, with the results and final palette.

If you want to look through our final “favorite’s” palette from the poll we did on The Creativity Exchange, you can see our final palette here.

We can’t wait to start hearing your favorite “go-to” colors and pull together a final palette of Remodelaholic favorites!

Ok, I’ll start the voting off today by sharing my favorite paint color in my home, which is Repose Gray from Sherwin Williams.  I love it because it looks amazing in any light and it’s a perfect light warm gray. I have it in several rooms in my home and it always looks so beautiful:

  5. We’re huge fans of BM’s Baja Dunes – although we lightened it 50% for some walls and then again 50% for others, and it’s just amazing.

  9. My husband and I LOVE a color called Sandpiper by Martha Stewart – it’s a great biegey -gray that it perfect! It feels like being at the beach, looks amazing next to white trim and is a great bridge between grays and brown. We accidentally found it when we needed a “hurry up and paint we need to sell our house” color and loved it so much we’ve used it in almost every room at our new house.

  12. Filtered Shade by Valspar. A perfect taupe tinged grey that looks great no matter what the light in the room. I also love the lighter color on the card, Seashell Gray, which is a neutral barely-gray. I use it in my kitchen and rec room as an alternative to white.

  19. Right now my favourite colour is Pavilion Blue by Farrow & Ball, the shade I chose after an agonising hesitation for my kitchen walls. I must say that Hague Blue, mentionned above, is very, very interesting because it changes a lot depending on the light and time of day.

  20. Beach sparkle by Valspar. I painted half my dining room (above the chair rail) that color something like 8 years ago and it still makes me happy every time I look at it. It’s probably too bright for most people, but it makes my heart sing.
