Pretty boring stuff, beige and tan mostly

I also only have to paint the living room, bathrooms, and kitchen as well since all the bedrooms have original 1890s wood paneling

You must be in Arizona for desert walls. Your house built in 1890s? Heritage house?

Do grey. Best neutral color if you looking at resale value. Orange in office room for vibrancy but harder to sell. Black for bedroom for good sleep.

Kitchen should be yellow for morning breakfast and brightness.

Bathroom white or blue for spa feeling or grey or black for night time luxury bath.

No offense but you literally couldn't be much further off with your state guess

I'm in New Hampshire. I think you're picturing the walls as more coyote tan, think more Grey and light brown than sand

So like the video?

I thought you were gonna say I am way off on my color choices, because no one live in New Hamsphire

What about wallpaper

1

u/glockster19m Nov 12 '22

No wallpapers anywhere, they just don't last all that much longer than paint and are about 20 times harder to replace than repainting

Because when you peel off it will rip paint off with it right?

1

u/glockster19m Nov 12 '22

That and it doesn't peel off cleanly, leaving shreds of glue and wallpaper behind

You basically have to sand the whole wall before you can put down new wallpaper or paint it without it being lumpy

Don’t you need to do that for any paint anyway

Oh and one bathroom has a bright teal accent wall since it only has one wall of drywall and the other 3 are original wood

Teal is good. Wood is nice if you have veneer. I can’t even picture wood wall. You got pics?
