Discover the Magic of Benjamin Moore's Small Color Samples: A Smart Approach to Perfecting Your Space


Why Choosing Benjamin Moore's Small Color Samples is a Game-Changer

Choosing the right paint color for your space can be a daunting task, but Benjamin Moore's small color samples offer a convenient and cost-effective solution. Available at Barrydowne Paint in Sudbury, these samples allow you to experiment with different hues in your actual environment before making a final decision. Here’s why you should consider using them:

  1. True Color Representation: Lighting in your home can significantly affect how a paint color looks. By using Benjamin Moore's small samples, you can see how the color appears in the specific lighting conditions of your room.
  1. Minimal Risk, Maximum Reward: Instead of committing to a full can of paint only to discover it’s not the right shade, these samples allow for a low-cost trial.
  1. Eco-Friendly Option: Small samples mean less waste. If you decide against a color, you haven’t wasted a large amount of paint.

  

 Tips for Using Benjamin Moore's Small Color Samples Effectively

  1. Test in Different Lights: Paint your sample on a small section of the wall and observe how the color changes in natural and artificial lighting throughout the day.
  1. Use Primer for True Color: If you’re painting over a dark or vibrant color, use a primer before applying the sample. This ensures you see the sample color in its truest form.
  1. Compare with Furnishings: Place your painted sample near furniture, curtains, and other room elements to see how it complements your existing decor.
  1. Paint Large Swatches: A larger swatch will give you a better feel of the color than a small dab. Paint a sizeable section to really understand how the color works in the space.
  1. Take Your Time: Live with the sample for a few days. Observe it in different lighting conditions and at different times of the day before making a final decision.
  1. Consult with Experts: Visit a Barrydowne Paint store and speak with our color experts. They can provide valuable insights and suggestions based on your preferences and room specifics.
