Neutral walls better help to create flow in your home and let your beautiful furnishing take center stage.

We don't agree on everything, but we definitely agree on this.

One of our favorite colors even has 'agree' in the name.

Anita of Cedar Hill Farmhouse has painted the interior of her house Agreeable Gray by Sherwin Williams.

Agreeable Gray SW 7029 is a greige.  A soft taupey gray that has the slightest hint of lavender and I mean slightest.  It is a stunning color that looks beautiful in any room.  

Read more about Anita's choice of Agreeable Gray here.

Yvonne's wall color at Stone Gable is Sonnet by Benjamin Moore.  Sonnet AF 55 is part of the Ben Moore Affinity collection.

Sonnet is as neutral as you can get and serves as the perfect backdrop to Yvonne's furniture, accessories.  It also pairs so well with her floors.

The wall color and trim color throughout my house is Simply White by Benjamin Moore.  A warm, but a very clean white.  

The transformation of my house inside and out with this color is kind of amazing and I LOVE it!  Everything is so fresh, crisp & clean looking now, as opposed to brown, dark & dirty when we bought the place.

Paint itself is pretty transformative, and the right paint is almost magical.

It certainly felt magical to me as we restored our 131 year old house using gallon upon gallon of Simply White paint!
