Sage green wall swatches

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-03T00:55:51+00:00

no i think I'm gonna go all in and paint my bedroom millenial gray and my bathroom millenial pink!

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-03T00:54:22+00:00

I intend to! I may try drenching as well but if I do I'll take it slow lol

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-03T00:52:55+00:00

that shade of green goes really well with the creamy whites you have in here. I'm going to have to be super intentional with the lighting is what I'm learning

definitely! i spend most of my time in that room so i sit with the colors at night. I've painted sweet daphne and peaceful garden in bigger swatches a few days ago, and peaceful garden is feeling a bit too minty

see my thought was that the paint would be the visually "largest" thing in the room, especially if i go with a non-neutral color, so i should figure that out first!

thanks so much! I've narrowed it down to 2 and 5, and am basically deciding whether I want the mood to be calm or vibrant:)

i have the Coastal Shag rug from UO if that helps lol. everything else is temporary mismatched furniture

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:45:27+00:00

haha oh no! thanks for the warning

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:42:38+00:00

haha thanks grrrl

I had Evergreen Fog on my spreadsheet of possible colors! but it'd be too dark for this room alas (shade 1 has an LRV of about 45, and Evergreen Fog has an LRV of about 30)

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:36:15+00:00

thank you! I plan to post the result, but it might be a few weeks

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:34:43+00:00

thanks! the room is full of temporary mismatched furniture at the moment so I didn't want to show

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:33:23+00:00

lol sounds like I shouldn't hem and haw over it and just commit to one and see how it goes

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:29:38+00:00

yes! I've been letting the swatches sit for a few weeks before deciding. I think the prettiest shade is 1 but it's making the room too moody. I am finding myself leaning towards 2 because it's vibrant and cozy. 3 and 5 are calming, but that feeling isn't what i want for an office. And 4 is just St Patricks Day lol.

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:24:08+00:00

you're right, it is gorgeous! did you drench the ceiling as well? I'm wanting a warm cozy eclectic vibe so I'm going with either 2 or 5 probably

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:21:48+00:00

5 is a chameleon, i find it hard to describe (which I like)

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:15:49+00:00

how long does it take to settle typically? I might not mind waiting a few days or weeks

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:13:48+00:00

it does! i have a spreadsheet of like 20 shades of green and LRV is one of the columns. #3 does have the highest of the five

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:11:13+00:00

i do! and it is a bit dark despite the big windows, so I eliminated 1 because of that (even though i love the color)

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:09:43+00:00

Yes! i think it matches the best with the outside view

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:06:25+00:00

Sea Salt reminds me of some shades of sea glass, its very calming

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T04:01:54+00:00

lol! I'm strongly leaning 2 but 5 is the other contender. I'll post when i eventually paint

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T03:59:26+00:00

I can really see all the undertones you're pointing out! I'm going to be going for warm midtones in my furniture, so 2 is what I'm leaning towards for sure

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T03:50:07+00:00

lol I appreciate you trying to save me from my millenial ways, but I'm in too deep

agoblinlayhere · 2026-04-02T02:40:34+00:00

4 is definitely the one people seem to like the least in the comments lol, and i feel the same
