The Most Popular Fixer Upper Paint Colors!

Joanna painted the main living areas of her own farmhouse Alabaster and she continually uses it in homes she designs on Fixer Upper as well. It’s a great color to use on walls and trim both.

This gorgeous muted gray/green is Joanna’s go to color for interior walls in many of the homes she’s filmed on Fixer Upper. It is a lovely neutral when paired with white trim and her signature hardwood floors.

Joanna loves to use this color on built-ins that need a little more contrast and it makes for a fantastic color for bedrooms and baths as well.

I hope this roundup of the most popular Fixer Upper paint colors has been helpful! I really think you can’t go wrong with any of these. Just remember to get some samples up in your space before jumping in to start painting!

I may or may not know this from experience, but husbands do not like you changing your mind after they’ve already painted half the room.

Kudos for partnering with Kilz; they, hands down, have the best primer. This, along with your own reputation, speaks to the quality of your paint line

Wow JoAnn I didn’t know you had a paint line! And watching the balloon test and the newspaper test was very convincing. I’m not your paint the walls different colors every year…person. I’m the that looks great, I’ll check it in 5 years..girl. This paint looks like it’s right up my alley. Thank you!

Love the peel and stick samples. They aren’t as tiny as other samples and a person can really get a vision of how the entire wall will look.

I am so curious why everyone and every tv show, movie etc, use music in the background that competes with the person talking. PS. Your paint line looks amazing.

I've used aluminum foil to wrap up brushes for years! Foil and then into a plastic bag. Same with pan liners, I just line it with foil and toss when done. Doesn't short around like a plastic bag would. Lots of good technique tips in this video tho!

Ou, I never paid attention to details before watching this video. Thanks for the tips.

For the chair: just flip it over and paint the bottom first. Paint tray liner. Do not throw away after one use. Either rinse it out in a sink or use up all of the paint on the liner and let it dry. I have reused same liner 10 to 15 times. You just build up layers of dried paint no issues.

Awesome tips! I know this will make painting more satisfying with the end results!

I like this. It is a lovely place, i would just change the bath for a big walkin shower, .. and make the kitchen little smaller .

[AZ_actual_voter]

I LOVE the peel & stick paint color samples! How wonderful of the company to think about updating the whole process we all use to pick our new colors! So very convenient! Thank you!

I adore this woman. Such a great mother and wife.

I always use a roller extension handle. That allows you to stand back slightly and take long strokes. Plus it is less tiring.
