Ask Abigail Amira: Our Favorite Mushroom Hues

February 28, 2022

I am often asked a lot of questions about my favorite colors. So today I thought I would round up some of my favorite mushroom hues. I like to use these colors to create sophisticated designs that feel a little warmer than bright whites. They are BEAUTIFUL as an all oVer color, on paneling and cabinetry.

First up is one of my favorite colors, Benjamin Moore's Pale Oak. This color reads like a gorgeous soft greige with warm undertones in natural lighting. It can appear more beige or gray depending on your lighting. This color is so versatile and can be used on walls, cabinets, or even exteriors.

Another pretty color by Benjamin Moore is Fossil. This color is a very light, taupe grey. It has cooler undertones and is great for modern spaces with natural light.

Next up is Sherwin Williams China Doll. This color is light beige with mild undertones and can add warmth to rooms facing the north. It works really well in bedrooms with feminine touches.

Then we have Farrow & Ball Dimity. This interesting color is a red-based neutral, creating a subdued taupe that adds warmth and depth. I like this for homes that want more of an aged, collected-over-time feel. “Dimity is named after the lightweight cotton fabric originally used to make ladies’ bustles, but which is now more commonly used for bedding” -Farrow & Ball

When I think about darker mushroom hues, this color immediately comes to mind. Farrow & Ball’s Mouse’s Back is a wonderful, classic grey-brown and gets its name from British field mice and their fawn color. This color is green-based creating a cozy feel and helps soften even the largest of rooms. I love seeing this on cabinetry as well as walls.

Last up, we have Farrow & Ball’s Stoney Ground. A neutral that has a classic stone color as the name suggests. With slight red undertones, this color will add warmth and create a soft feel. It pairs beautifully with Mouse’s Back for a quietly cohesive color scheme perfect for exteriors, cabinets, and walls.

DIY Pantry Refresh For 2022
Interiors

At the end of 2021, I started shopping at Costco and that is when I realized I had a big problem. I had nowhere to put my monthly haul! My pantry is a decent size but it only had four 12” deep wire shelves and we used up that space pretty quickly. This year, I decided I needed to focus on storage since we are bringing a new baby home in just a few months. So, at the end of my second trimester, I got to work on giving our pantry a refresh.

When I was a little girl, I dreamed of having a house with its very own library — A place where I could hide away and embark on adventures in many different worlds without ever leaving my home. Now that I’m grown up, I still secretly wish for a library in my home. Unfortunately, my budget doesn’t allow for it. However, I wasn’t about to let silly practicality and financial constraints stop me from enjoying a small piece of that childhood dream. I’m excited to share my IKEA Billy Bookcase built-in hack with you.
