This year we were so lucky to take a peek inside some of the most stunning homes across the South. Whether we were able to stop by in person or admire from afar, I’m feeling so inspired looking back on our year.
As I’ve continued to get to know my wonderful audience, one thing is clear: y’all love pretty homes and specific paint colors! It’s one of my top requests. So today I thought I’d reshare some of our favorite homes and paint colors used in them. (Hint: Next week we’ll focus on wallpaper!)
Let’s take a look.
This Isle of Hope estate was so inspiring we created one blog post for the exterior and one for the interior! The curb appeal is so idyllic and I love the pop of color the front door provides. It’s in a gorgeous blackened teal blue.
Front door: Gentleman’s Grey by Benjamin Moore
Exterior: Glacier White by Benjamin Moore
Kate Morrison’s storied Concord home gives you a sense of ease and delight. I think that has a lot to do with the gentle blue and green color pallete and the emphasis on floral textiles and botanicals throughout.
Foyer: Woodlawn Blue by Benjamin Moore
Hallway: Chappell Green by Farrow and Ball
Kitchen cabinets: Downy by Sherwin Williams
Scullery cabinets: Mizzle by Farrow and Ball.
We love a good before and after and Molly Basile’s Charleston home is no exception. The sanctuary of style — and comfort — is filled with Southern charm. She shows us neutrals are never boring!
Front porch ceiling: Borrowed Light by Farrow & Ball
Exterior painted brick: 50/50 mix of Swiss Coffee and White Dove by Benjamin Moore
Shutters: Balboa Mist by Benjamin Moore
Kitchen cabinets: White Dove by Benjamin Moore
Mudroom cabinets: Parma Gray by Farrow & Ball
I always like to show examples of well-preserved architecture, so touring this 1930s Charlotte home was really special to me. I love the rich, creamy beiges they used in this one.
Kitchen cabinets: Accessible Beige by Sherwin Williams
Living room: Balanced Beige by Sherwin Williams
In case you missed it… I share some tips for refreshing your dining room and how I balance family-friendly living with elegant design.
