I for one am OBSESSED with this look! There&#8217;s just something about the dark, rich color, particularly in bedroom spaces, that adds another layer of warmth and cozy vibes. I knew I wanted the shiplap in our master bedroom to be painted in a dark color. However, I couldn&#8217;t decide between old faithful SW Iron Ore (on the bottom) or SW Carbonized (on the top). I took to Instagram stories and, 75% voted for SW Iron Ore which only confirms that it&#8217;s the best dark paint!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns no-bottom-margin is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1058\" height=\"1411\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/20191114_174253894_iOS.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1596\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1058\" height=\"1411\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/20191115_025817213_iOS.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1597\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>We painted the entire shiplap wall with a paintbrush. The downside of using a paintbrush is the brush stroke visibility. However, in this space, I think a matte finish was much more forgiving. A paint sprayer would have been ideal because you just can&#8217;t beat that smooth finish!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns no-bottom-margin is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1058\" height=\"1411\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/20191117_024110724_iOS.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1600\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1058\" height=\"1411\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/20191117_024048566_iOS.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1599\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Honestly, I don&#8217;t think you can go wrong with SW Iron Ore! The amount of lighting in your space will obviously have an effect on how this color appears. With natural daylight, it appears as a warm, charcoal color and at night, depending on your bulb type, it can appear as a much darker, almost black color. Either way, it&#8217;s the best dark paint around and, I&#8217;m so happy with my decision!

In addition to the shiplap wall, we also tackled 2 other wall spaces and our bedroom hallway. Our original room color, SW Accessible Beige, was too warm a color for my taste. At night, it was straight up TAN which has bothered me ever since we moved into this house, some 3 years ago!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1867\" height=\"1400\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/DSC06762.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1590\"\/><figcaption>WALL #1 || BEFORE &#8211; SW ACCESSIBLE BEIGE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Needless to say, the pressure was on to find a replacement color that would work better in our bedroom space and compliment the SW Iron Ore. While it was easy to find the best dark paint, finding the right white was easier said than done! I took to Instagram once again and contacted friends with white interior walls, compiling my list of white paint options. The 2 main choices that came highly recommended were SW Pure White and BM Chantilly Lace. When we tested both color options, the BM Chantilly Lace appeared too warm with a yellow undertone. The SW Pure White looked more like a true white and so that was the decision we made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1867\" height=\"1400\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/DSC06780.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1592\"\/><figcaption>WALL #1 || AFTER &#8211; SW PURE WHITE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6021375135080120\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3858885546\"><\/ins>\r\n\t<script>\r\n         (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n\t<\/script>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The role lighting plays on paint color<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I think the pressure to find that RIGHT color is getting to me because I&#8217;m not so sure I&#8217;m 100% loving this white. The lighting varies so drastically on each wall in our bedroom that it&#8217;s becoming quite the challenge to choose ONE consistent color!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1867\" height=\"1400\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/DSC06773.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1591\"\/><figcaption>WALL #2 || BEFORE &#8211; SW ACCESSIBLE BEIGE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While the wall with the large window and our hallway both look great in SW Pure White, the wall on the opposite side of the room is picking up hints of blue and purple. I&#8217;m going to have to think real hard about my next move, so to be continued &#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1867\" height=\"1400\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/DSC06782.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1593\"\/><figcaption>WALL #2 and HALLWAY || AFTER &#8211; SW PURE WHITE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6021375135080120\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3858885546\"><\/ins>\r\n\t<script>\r\n         (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n\t<\/script>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What else we did this week<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our photo ledge measures 6ft in length so as to be in proportion with our king bed. We used pine wood for the ledge and stained it with Minwax Natural Oil-Based interior stain to simply enhance the natural color and beauty of the pine wood. I also added some sheer curtains on both sides of our large window. This is another decision I&#8217;m not 100% committed to. I love the light and airy element these curtains provide, but I don&#8217;t know if they&#8217;re the best choice for our space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns no-bottom-margin is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-4 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1058\" height=\"1411\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/20191130_222355748_iOS.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1603\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/DSC07012.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1604\" width=\"322\" height=\"482\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">This Week&#8217;s Agenda<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns no-bottom-margin is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-5 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>I&#8217;m going to order picture frames and a few home decor pieces from Target.
