Do you keep up with the yearly trends in paint? You may have noticed the darker trends in color lately.
You may also be surprised at a couple of these picks..I know I was. In case you missed the announcements of the paint colors of the year, I’m sharing a few of the popular ones from names you’ll recognize. I also shared several pictures on my Instagram page.
Benjamin Moore’s color of the year is a gorgeous soft rosy hue called “First Light” 2102-70.
It seems that everywhere you go these days, pink is a dominant color in restaurants, hotels, coffee shops, and is definitely here to stay. Described as a new neutral, more and more people are bringing pink into their homes.

I have been noticing that pink kitchen cabinets are becoming a thing too as shown below.
Sherwin Williams Color of the Year is a rich navy blue called “Naval” SW 6244

There is a huge trend for navy cabinets going on right now.
Navy cabinets look amazing with brass hardware and white carerra marble countertops, no doubt! But will they look dated years from now? 🤷♀️Check out more navy cabinet ideas on my Pinterest page.
A couple years back, we painted the walls of our home theater navy blue and really like the color for the space. My camera isn’t quite capturing the exact color, it looks better in person.
Behr’s choice for color of the year is called “Back to Nature” S#340-4. Behr describes this color as “a restorative and revitalizing green hue that engages the senses and pairs well with other colors both inside and outside your home”.

Ummm…yea..ok. Well, I think this is a great accent color, but not sure I would go crazy with this one. I’m also not a huge fan of green for walls. I would use the color for pillows, maybe an accent chair or one wall…but I would not paint an entire room in this color..just personal preference, but it looks like a pretty hue for a small space. I don’t have any pictures to show you from our home using this color, sorry.
