2018 Color of the Year from Sherwin Williams
Sherwin Williams has announced their choice for the 2018 Color of the Year. Let me introduce you to a lovely jewel-tone that goes by the name of Oceanside (SW 6496).
One quick trip around my website and you’re sure to discover that this color appeals to me.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying let’s paint your whole interior this color. For most people we’re looking at more of an accent color here. This is definitely not a color for the faint of heart. It’s quite a bold statement tone.
It might be fun to use this on maybe a bed wall in the guest room. Or maybe the built-in shelves in your home office. Of maybe even that is a bit much. Maybe we can incorporate this tone into furniture or accessory pieces for that punch of color.
With that tactic in mind, let me share a few fun finds to go along with Oceanside.
Velvet Applique Throw Pillows
This set of two pillows allows you to pull in the beautiful teal color without being too over the top. They have a striking geometric design on a neutral background. It’s an elegantly modern touch to any space.
Mid-Century Modern Loveseat
This loveseat takes your Oceanside color game up a notch. It will definitely bring a pop of color to your space. Great fun retro feel to it. This style piece is available in an armchair, sofa, and ottoman as well.
Old Fashioned Style Glasses
Let’s bring this color into the kitchen, shall we. What about these beautiful blue glasses! Made in Italy out of durable lead free crystal. Grab a set of 4 to entertain with. Don’t you just love this crinkled look?
Teal Glass Table Lamp
You light up my… Well you get my drift. This is another way to incorporate this jewel-tone. With a teal glass base and white linen shade, this lamp can easily be added into your space.
Area Rug
Ready to make a bold statement? What about pulling this color into the area rug? This one in particular has that modern take on distressed vintage style. It holds the bright teal right along side a navy blue and those ivory and beige neutrals.
Sherwin Williams has even pulled together some color combinations for us that complement this bold Color of the Year. Check out this list below. The numbers correspond the those in the image at the top of this post.
