Earthy Taupe Pink

Earth-tone-inspired hues are all the rage this year, and spring paint colors are no exception. Taupe pink is an excellent option because it adds warmth to your space but isn’t too overwhelming. Therefore, it’s a perfect bedroom paint color, but you can add splashes to other interior areas, such as the living room.

Grass Green

If you’re looking for a way to bring the outdoors into your home, look no further than a gorgeous grassy green shade. Though this is one of the brightest spring paint colors, it adds a relaxing energy to your home.

Cornflower Blue

Cornflower blue features cool undertones and is beautiful in a maximalist or minimalist home. We especially love the look of this shade against white, beige and other neutrals. Cornflower blue is a calming shade for a bedroom, but you can also switch up your bathroom walls by giving them a layer of this color.

Dandelion is a popular option as it adds a sunny vibe to your home, making the entire space more inviting. Of course, if you want to ensure it’s not too overwhelming, you can always start with an accent wall.

Tea Green

Last but not least is tea green. Like grass green, this hue brightens up your space regardless of which room you put it in. Tea green is subtle yet makes a statement. It’s also nearly neutral, so you can add flair with patterns.

Now that you know the best spring paint colors, you can reimagine your home for the new season. Consider using limewash paint to add some texture, too.
