Before and After the Benjamin Moore Nantucket Fog

Before - Restrained Gold (Sherwin Williams)


After - Nantucket Fog (Benjamin Moore)
We painted all weekend and finished the downstairs and about 90% of the way up to the ceiling in the foyer. The first morning after we had started the living room, I woke up at 5 am and was unable to go back to sleep because I was worried I didn't like the new color and had made a huge mistake... as in we purchased seven gallons of paint and there was no going back. Once we covered up the last of the yellow and pulled up the blue tape, I felt much better. It's a drastic change, but definitely an improvement.

  2. Oh man I want to move in! I LOVE it!!! I have a similar gold color in the kitchen and it has always irked me. It was supposed to be more latte and turned out mustard. Maybe one day I will take the plunge. It's amazing what a coat of paint can do!
