Another Paint Question

[keyslover]

I asked this in my OP, but it most likely will get lost.

Is it okay to paint many of the rooms in your house all one color?  Not necessarily the same color, but different tones or shades?

[snickers]

That's what we did in our house for the most part. Our livingroom/kitchen/up and downstairs hallway are a tan color, our bedroom is a chocolate milk color. Our bathrooms are funky colors though, lol.

No, the home decor nazis will come and berate you then make you repaint everything different colors.

I think it's fine - whatever suits YOU.

Although every room in my house is a different color - I just like variety.

That was my fear!  Damn it.  REBEL AGAINST THE HOME DECOR NAZIS!

I realized as I posted this it sounded super insecure and stupid.  We can paint our house whatever we want

Our house is all blues, greens and grays. Go with what you like. If you find it doesn't work for you, just repaint it.

We used only two shades in our whole house, both shades of gray, so I say yes.

[sergey]

Absolutely. Using multiple colors from the same paint sample strip is a pretty fail safe way of coordinating a house while maintaining a little contrast between rooms.

Yes, and it makes coordinating things easier.

[WOT?*]

I don't see why not. It's a lot better, imo, than a palette of crazy colors everywhere.

My downstairs is all neutrals, with the kitchen and dining rooms darker versions of the family and living rooms (which are different colors but so close in the lighter shades that it's really a "why did we bother?") and the colors run through the hallways, stairwell and upstairs loft area and skylight. The bedrooms, bathrooms and office are whatever we decided to paint since you can't see them if the door is closed anyway.
