Painting your furniture is one of the most effective ways to refresh your space without a full renovation. The right paint color can turn a simple piece into a standout feature—or help it blend beautifully into your décor. Whether you're aiming for timeless, trendy, or somewhere in between, these 8 furniture paint colors from Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Behr bring personality, elegance, and versatility to any piece.
Here’s why they deserve a spot in your home:
1. Antique White – Sherwin-Williams
Why it works:
Warm and inviting, Antique White is far from a stark white. Its soft beige undertones give it depth and dimension, making it ideal for furniture in traditional or cozy farmhouse settings. Use it on dressers, bookshelves, or kitchen cabinets to bring warmth and a lived-in charm without sacrificing brightness.
Style tip: Pairs beautifully with brass hardware or warm-toned woods.
2. Rose Blush – Benjamin Moore
Why it works:
Delicate yet refined, Rose Blush is a grown-up take on pastel pink. This powdery shade adds softness and sophistication, especially to furniture in nurseries, bedrooms, or feminine workspaces. It’s a subtle color that still makes a quiet statement.
Style tip: Looks stunning on a vintage vanity or bedside table with glass or marble accents.
3. Dark Navy – Behr
Why it works:
Dark Navy is timeless and grounding. It delivers a deep, rich hue that instantly elevates any furniture piece, whether it’s a modern sideboard or a classic armoire. The color evokes stability and calm, making it a smart choice for bedrooms, libraries, or dining spaces.
Style tip: Use on statement pieces like a bed frame or dining table. Add gold or bronze accents for an upscale touch.
4. Dovetail – Sherwin-Williams
Why it works:
Warm and balanced, Dovetail is a mid-tone gray that adds depth without feeling too dark. It's a perfect anchoring color for pieces that need to blend in but still have substance. Great for larger furniture like media cabinets or bookshelves.
Style tip: Pairs effortlessly with colorful cushions, throws, or wall art.
5. Oceanside – Sherwin-Williams
Why it works:
Bold but balanced, Oceanside is a dark teal blue that brings energy without overwhelming a room. Its rich tone pops on furniture like desks, cabinets, or even accent chairs—especially in spaces that receive lots of natural light.
Style tip: Pair with crisp whites or natural wood to let the color shine.
6. Muted Sage – Behr
Why it works:
Inspired by nature, Muted Sage is a calming, earthy green with a gray undertone. It’s ideal for rustic, organic, or vintage interiors. Painting furniture in this shade brings a sense of tranquility and grounded beauty into your space.
Style tip: Perfect for mudroom benches, sideboards, or kitchen islands paired with natural stone or rattan textures.
7. Drift of Mist – Sherwin-Williams
Why it works:
Light and breezy, Drift of Mist is a neutral gray that works in virtually any room. It doesn’t go too dark—even in low-light spaces—making it perfect for furniture in hallways, bathrooms, or basements. It adds an elegant calm without feeling cold or flat.
Style tip: Try this on bathroom cabinets or a living room console for a fresh, airy feel.
8. Soft Fern – Benjamin Moore
Why it works:
Whisper-light and wonderfully soothing, Soft Fern is a pale green with subtle gray tones. It brings a lightness to any room and works beautifully on furniture in sunrooms, bedrooms, or entryways. This hue invites a gentle, organic feel into your home.
Style tip: Use on accent chairs, entryway tables, or even a painted headboard for a serene touch.
