Color chips are notoriously small for making such a big decision. A larger area is needed to get an accurate read on the right color.
Choosing a new paint color for the exterior of your home can be fun and a little scary. To keep it fun and make it less scary, you can get some paint samples from Sherwin-Williams and test them on your siding.
There are lots of ways to narrow down your paint color. Pay attention to other houses in your area as you go about your daily business. What catches your eye (in a good way)? How do you think this color combination would look on your house? How does it compare with your neighbors’ houses? You probably don’t want to use the same color as a next-door neighbor.
Once you’ve narrowed down your color choice, go to Sherwin-Williams and find the color on their charts with the help of an employee. Now you probably need to narrow down the shade of color you want and this is where some actual paint samples come into play. Color chips are notoriously small for making such a big decision. A larger area is needed to get an accurate read on the right color.
Ask for samples of your top two or three colors. The staff will mix up quart-sized color samples, which you can take home and test on your walls. Be sure to paint a sizeable area so you can get a real feel for what the color will look like on the entire house.
