All Hail Hale Navy

I really want to paint one of my bedroom walls a dark color to add some dark tones to my bedroom and have been searching for the perfect shade. I envision a dark navy/charcoal to contrast with my white headboard and sheets and I'm on the hunt for the perfect brass sconces. I stumbled upon Benjamin Moore's "Hale Navy" while pinning this morning (duh) and have to say, I'm sold. It looks like it's not too dark as to appear black in a dark room yet not too blue. Check it out below. Once completed, I'll do a full apartment tour on MM - can't wait! Have a great weekend everyone!

Navy Walls

I love the look of navy walls. They look great in lacquer in a front hall, dining room or library and non-lacquer in bedrooms and living rooms. Navy is one of my all time favorite colors so it makes sense that I'm drawn to the hue in home design, as well. If you're scared to commit to a whole blue room, I recommend painting the back of white bookshelves or infusing a butler's pantry with the color.
