Sonia Velazquez decorating Latin American homes

Today you are going to paint that space so frequented by your family and that you will be proud to show the world! Let’s be honest, when our home is not to our liking, we avoid inviting guests and when unavoidable, we prefer to have them over at night so they won’t notice the imperfections or scratches on our walls. We may even try to hide these with the sofa or book case. The walls seem to get scratched up on their own!

Does this sound familiar?

Well, don’t worry because Sherwin-Williams is her to the rescue!

With a few hours with a brush and rolling pin, you can have that magazine-ready home to enjoy.

To me, painting is cathartic. I am constantly looking for ways in which to apply the new colors that I love. When this family asked me for color advice, I jumped at the chance. The moment I entered Stephanie’s home in Key Biscayne, Florida, I knew that that was the ideal place for the “Duration Home” color line. Specially the family room which is most used by the kids to play, dance, watch TV and so much more.

I fell in love with the Wheat Grass (SW 6408) color. I thought it was ideal for this much used, dark space. By using the ColorSnap Studio app for iPad, I was able to paint the walls virtually and confirm that that was the perfect color. The “Duration Home” interior paint was the perfect option for this family. They were able to save time and money because this paint has primer already included and is stain resistant, perfect for high traffic areas such as this.

The sad and dingy area was converted into a bright space. For step-by-step instructions, watch the video here. You can quickly and easily transform your space and then, be sure to tell me all about it!
