Harlow’s Nursery: Baby Blue

Amanda and Greg knew they wanted a nursery with blue walls, an ode to the ocean from their honeymoon in Mexico. When selecting from a color card wasn’t enough, grabbing a Color to Go helped narrow down their options. Amanda gathered their existing belongings they planned to style the room with to find an eclectic mix of him and her.

Harlow’s Nursery: Ocean-inspired

Memories are often connected through color. Capture those moments on your phone, and the ColorSnap App by Sherwin-Williams will suggest a paint color that matches it. Want nursery walls to match the bluest ocean? No problem.

One last little detail! To really make those door and window frames shine, a couple coats of Resilience™ in Pure White (SW 7005) made all the difference. This stuff is made with MoistureGuard™ Technology, so you don’t have to worry about dew or threat of rain. 

Great Friends, Gorgeous Garage: Step 1

With a blue front porch and blue accents around the exterior of their house, Cole and his wife were leaning toward a dark blue for the garage, but they were a little nervous to go so bold on such a large project.

Those nerves were squashed pretty quickly, though, once they got out our ColorSnap Studio app! With just a photo of the garage and a couple taps on the screen, they got a great idea of how the garage would look with a Sea Worthy (SW 7620) surface, and they were fully confident once they compared it to a color card from the store.

When you’re young and just starting out on your own, your biggest ask of your friends is to help you move to a new apartment. Once you’re a little older and have your own house, the ask gets a little bigger—like helping you paint your garage! That’s what Cole did. With nothing but the promise of sunshine, snacks, soda (we’ll call it “soda”) and some company, he got the gang together for a few days of painting.
