“What paint color did you use?” That is the main question I am asked almost daily. On this page you will find all of my favorite paint colors that I use in my home along with photos of how the color looks in each room.
All of the paint colors in our home are by Benjamin Moore. All of the walls are painted using the Benjamin Moore Regal Select line in the eggshell finish. The ceilings are in a matte finish. Our cabinets and trim are all a semi-gloss finish.
I chose a neutral palette to create light and airy spaces throughout my home. The paint colors I chose coordinate well and flow from room to room.
Paint Colors in my Home
I like keeping one consistent and neutral color throughout all of the main living areas so it is easy to add pops of seasonal color with accessories all year long. Therefore, the main living spaces are all painted Benjamin Moore Horizon (OC-53). The ceiling and trim in these spaces and most of my home is painted Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace (OC-65).
The Front Door
Our front door was a dark brown stain when we moved in and stayed that color until we painted it in the summer of 2020. The new color I chose for the front door is Benjamin Moore Cheating Heart (1617).
Here is the door color before:
And here it is after painting it Cheating Heart which is a nice dark gray color.
You will find all of my front porch decorating ideas and seasonal tours here.
Entryway
Like most of the main areas in our home, the entryway is painted Benjamin Moore Horizon (OC-53) and the ceiling and trim are painted Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace (OC-65).
You can see the barely there contrast between the very light gray Horizon paint color and the crisp white Chantilly Lace on the trim and door.
The inside of the front door was originally painted a dark brown color. When we painted the outside of the door, we also painted the inside. The color we chose for the inside is Benjamin Moore Coventry Gray (HC-169).
In the photos below you can see the front door and trim when it was brown. And then the updated paint color, Coventry Gray.
You can see the many ways I’ve styled my entryway for the seasons and holidays here.
Dining Room
Walls: Benjamin Moore Horizon (OC-53); Ceiling and Trim: Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace (OC-65)
The dining room is to the right of the entryway and is the first room you see upon entering the house. Since the two spaces are connected I used the same wall color in the dining room as the entryway.

Kitchen, Butler’s Pantry, Breakfast Nook and Living Room
Walls: Benjamin Moore Horizon (OC-53); Cabinetry, Ceiling and Trim: Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace (OC-65); Butler’s Pantry and Bench Seat Benjamin Moore Hale Navy (HC-154)
We have a large open floor plan in our main living space. The Kitchen, Butler’s Pantry, Living Room and Breakfast Nook are essentially all open to one another. The ceiling and trim in all these areas are painted Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace. The kitchen cabinets and shelves are also painted Chantilly Lace. The Kitchen Island, Butler Pantry Cabinets, and Breakfast Nook Bench Seat are all painted Benjamin Moore Hale Navy. The walls in all of these areas are Benjamin Horizon.
Laundry Room
Walls: Benjamin Moore Horizon (OC-53); Ceiling and Trim: Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace (OC-65); Cabinets: Unknown
The laundry room walls are painted Benjamin Moore Horizon and the ceiling and trim are Chantilly Lace. The current cabinet color is unknown since it was painted that color prior to us moving in. We have plans to paint the cabinets Coventry Gray down the road.
Mudroom
Walls: Benjamin Moore Horizon (OC-53); Ceiling, Trim, Built-Ins and Doors: Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace (OC-65)
Teen Lounge
Walls and Ceiling: Benjamin Moore Horizon (OC-53); Trim: Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace (OC-65)
The majority of our home is on one level. However we do have two bedrooms upstairs with a living area/playroom between them. Since my children are older we decided to turn that room into a hangout space just for them. We call it our Teen Lounge.
