Completing a paint project in your home can be scary, especially if you don’t know how you’re going to like it in the years to come. Montgomery’s Building Supplies, located in Warsaw, NY, has been supplying local communities with paint and home renovation supplies for over 100 years. Below, the team shares three tips about picking a paint color that you’re going to love.

Buy Some Testers

Testers are very easy to find, affordable, and worth buying if you want to get an idea of how a color is going to look on your wall. This will also give you a chance to see what it looks like at different times of the day. In order to get the full effect, you should keep each tester up for at least one week. After that, you can decide on a color or go out and buy new testers.

Think About the Size of Your Room

Sometimes the size of a room can really dictate what kind of paint you choose. If you have a smaller room, choosing a lighter tone will make it seem larger. On the other hand, there is more flexibility with choosing bolder colors in larger rooms. 

Match the Existing Furniture or Artwork

If you don’t have any reference point, it is harder to visualize the finished product. By choosing a color that is already being used in your room such as a couch or even a piece of artwork, you will feel more comfortable when it goes on your walls.
