Life Changing Paint Colors- Color your world!

Crazy busy and no time to blog so I am keeping this an easy one!  I get asked my favorite colors ALL the time.  Here on the East Coast, these colors have served me well.  I know Benjamin Moore colors, ONLY and have painted with them for the last 20 years.  If you paint with their product you will always get amazing results.
Favorite Life Changing Colors
Red- Caliente AF-290

The great thing about Benjamin Moore's Color Preview fan deck is the 4th color down is the true color and they lighten it 3 as you go up the chart and they darken it 3 as you go down the chart.  If one doesn't fit you then move up or down on the chip and you will find a happy color!
Happy Decorating!
