Put the pumpkin down. 🎃

Fall décor goes back in a bin by December. A warm wall color sticks around through the holidays and well past them.

5 fall colors that aren't orange (all Sherwin-Williams):

Camel: Universal Khaki SW 6150 (SW's 2026 Color of the Year)
Cream: Creamy SW 7012
Olive: Pewter Green SW 6208
Rust: Cavern Clay SW 7701
Chocolate: Urbane Bronze SW 7048

Our rule: pick one wall, not every wall. A dining room, a built-in, or the wall behind the sofa is plenty.

Sherwin-Williams just named its 2027 Color of the Year… and it's a green that sometimes isn't green. 🌿

Meet Celery SW 6421: a soft, fresh green with warm yellow undertones.

📍 Love it for kitchens with white cabinets and warm wood, bedrooms, dining rooms, and entryways.
❌ We'd skip it in windowless bathrooms and basements. Without daylight, it loses its magic.

Would you put Celery in your home? Drop a 🌿 for YES or a 🙅 for "not for me" 👇

How much does it cost to paint a house in Kansas City? 🏠 Everyone wants to know. Nobody wants to ask. So we're just going to tell you.

There's no flat price because there's no standard house. Six things move your number: square footage, how many stories, siding material, one coat or two, a color change vs. a refresh – and the big one: wood rot hiding under old paint. You can't price rot until you're close enough to touch the trim.

Before you call for a painting quote, have these ready:
✔️ Rough square footage
✔️ How many stories
✔️ When it was last painted
✔️ Any soft or peeling trim you've spotted

📌 Save this for when you start getting quotes.

Your guests are never going to see your primary bedroom. 👀

But they'll walk through your entryway. Use your powder room. Hang a coat in your mudroom. Put a hand on the stairwell wall on the way up.

Those are the rooms taking the most abuse in the whole house – shoes, bags, dogs, laundry baskets, twenty years of fingerprints at the exact same height on the exact same wall. And they're the last rooms anybody thinks to repaint.

Here's what makes them worth doing: they're small. Which makes them the cheapest and fastest rooms in your house to completely change. Most of these are a one-day job.

Everybody hosting this holiday season is worrying about their living room. Their guests are looking at the hallway. 🚪

Interior calendar starts filling mid-October for the holidays. DM us the room, and we'll tell you what it'd take.

Saturday reset, but make it permanent.

You've done the version that lasts a weekend - candle lit, blanket folded, everything in its place by Sunday afternoon. Then Monday arrives, and the room goes back to being a room.

Some resets don't undo themselves. A soft sage wall, warm light coming through linen, and suddenly the space holds the calm instead of you having to keep putting it there.

Your sanctuary starts with one room. Usually the one you sit in most.

This is the argument happening in half the driveways in Johnson County right now. 👀

Three exteriors. Three completely different personalities. One of them is going on your house this fall.

A – Classic White + Black. Sharp, current, resells beautifully. Also shows every bit of pollen by May.

B – Warm Neutral + White. The one nobody regrets in year eight. Plays nicest with brick, stone and a beige roof.

C – Sage Green + Cream. The one people slow down for. Ages best on a shaded lot.

Here's the part nobody says out loud: there's no wrong answer, but there is a wrong answer for your specific house. Your roof color, your brick, how much afternoon sun the front elevation takes, and what the neighbors already did will narrow this down faster than any inspiration board.

So settle it for us. 👇

Think painting is just paint + a brush? Think again. 👀🎨

There’s a whole lot that goes into getting a clean, professional finish—and yes, even the right tape matters. 😂

From protecting surfaces to sealing the substrate and choosing the right materials for the job, the little details during prep can make a BIG difference in the final result.
Because we’re not just here to make it look good on day one. We want the work to hold up, too. 💪
